Does anybody know how to do the same with the P4B266 as he states "there
should be a P4B266 hack around somewhere"?
Hi all,
now I really need some advice if I should try to go on with " improving" my
system. Furthermore, if there is some add. passiv cooling needed (bridges?)
when OC the motherboard add..Right now I don´t dare to actually. Pls. note
as well that I don´t have any AGP/PCI bus speed readings anymore, since I
left FSB 100. Turbo mode SHOULD lock both, but I´m not a 100% sure about
that...
I don´t think, I would be in any trouble to OC my CPU to an 3.4ghz-3.6ghz.
My installed DDR ram should be able to work at a ~ 400mhz instead of
352mhz.
How much af an total improvement would I be looking at, you think? Would it
be worth a try?
Because I today found a promising workaround for the P4B266 CPU/MEM divider.
Pls. have a look at it:

Performance Tips
Tip T210 : Mainboard supports faster CPUs, so the CPU can be upgraded when
needed.

I hope to get some oppinions about what I should do - or not to.
