3.33 GHz Remains Stable At Standard Voltage Levels
Initial excitement begins when raising the speed of the FSB from 133 to 166 MHz. To our utter astonishment, the CPU ran at a clock rate of 3.33 GHz without any problems at standard voltage levels of 1.3375 V, even when both cores were fully loaded.
Booting up at 3.33 GHz is no problem at standard voltage levels
Because of the 20x multiplier, setting the FSB clock rate to 166 produces a CPU clock rate of 3.33 GHz. It's noteworthy that the core voltage levels of 2.7 volts didn't read out correctly here.

Memory clock rates increase dramatically when an FSB speed of 149 MHz is chosen.
Naturally, we opted for a faster memory clock rate of DDR2-664.
For this memory clock rate we also kept our timings set at CL4-4-4-8
