Athlon XP AGOGA core Overclocking

[WellCookedFetus]

has anyone been able to run the AGOGA cpu-fsb at 166Mhz? I want to take my Athlon XP 1900+ and get its Cpu-fsb at 166Mhz so it run synced with the memory bus does, anyone know if it can handle this. I havn't unlock the mutiplier yet but if/when I do i want to underclock the cpu and up the fsb.

if u can unlock the CPU ull have no issues at all......just make sure ur MB can handle it....theres no gaurantee ull be overclockign in Mhz (1900+ is 1.600GHz right?) so the multiplier is 12.0 * 133 = 1.660......is u do lets say 9.5 or 10.0 multiplier it SHOULD work.....as long as ur MB has a divider lock.....so it keeps ur PCI and AGP in spec...otherwise it wont be a stable overclock at all....

I cant get my FSB anything over 158Mhz (316Mhz DDR) becasue all my PCI components start crappng out and AGP runs way outta spec. but i know the chip can take the Mhz aswell as the ram its PC 2700 CL2 DDR and the Chip ive gotten to 1.8GHz in just Multiplier......but with the combination of anythign above 158..its a no no.....than again every Chipset...Board..CPU....DIMM is different......

I have a kt400 coming in that should have a divider right? Do you have your voltage increased on you mob?

Perhaps I didn't read your post quite right but, doesn't your mobo support divider modes?
You should be able, despite not having a PCI/AGP lock mode, to set dividers to 1/5 when running 166MHZ.
