[Tommunist]

has anyone OCed a KT333 mobo to 166fsb? and more specifically has anyone done it with the asus a7v333? if so, how stable is everything running?

My MSI KT3 Ultra running at 170 MHz stable.
There is only 1 detail: earliest versions of KT333 (CD) were not very stable in comparison to the CE version.

if you buy it now it will be CE.
But anyway if you want to see it you can remove the heat sink of the northbridge to see the version.

if I want to oc to atholon 1800+ and msi kt3 ultra2 to fsb 166, am I need to manipulate the CPU?
By the software, it can only oc to 138 with mild instablity.

YES, but the unlocking of XP CPUs are not very easy...
