2700 XP = 2.17 GHz ?

I've just swapped out my trusty old PIII setup for an Athlon 2700 XP,
running on an Asus A7V8X-X board
(http://www.asus.com/products/mb/sock...x/overview.htm) with 2 x
512Mb PC3200.

What's the optimum speed I can get out of it? (rather than the 2167 the
board states). I don't really want to burn the chip out in a matter of
days/weeks - but I would like something a little higher than 2.17GHz. ;-)

Thanks for any help.

Well, you bought pretty close to the top end but you might get a little
more out of it if you have a good cpu cooler. Raise the multiplier.
Default is 13. You may have to raise vcore some too. But I doubt that you
will be able to get a noticable amount out of it. IOW what's a couple
hundred MHz when you're already over 2000.

What stepping is your CPU? the 2500+ have been hitting 2.4GHz so I'd aim
for that 12x200... you have good ram. What HSF did you get?

HSF is an Evercool copper jobbie. (CUD-725)

It's in a server spec case (IN Win Q2000) with a 550W PSU. 3 front fans, 3
rear fans, plus a couple inside (8cm @25000rpm).

1G of RAM is Kingston DDR400.

Just looking for "optimum" performance. ;-)

(8cm @25000rpm)

LOL! Keep your fingers out of that one ;-)

Hey H, your CUD-725 looks like a baby SLK800.

Where the hell did the extra "0" come from?

Oops - 2500 rpm.

Have got a 12cm fan though that when powered from the PSU almost "hovers"
when placed face down. It's from an old redundant fan kit from a Compaq
server.

Very similar to the Thermalite option. Smaller fan with no overhang though.
