Hello!
My configuration is:
Asus A7N8X deluxe v1.03
2xInfineon PC2700 DDR cl 2,5 (166MHz)
AMD Barton XP 2500x
The maximum FSB I get is 191MHz (* 11 = 2101 MHz at 1,75V).
I'm wondering if the memory or the mainboard is the bottleneck???
Both have their official limit at 166 MHz.
Any idea?

That's a pretty good overclock for that motherboard revision.
The CPU is more than capable, perhaps it is you're RAM?
Tried increasing the voltage up to 2.7 on the RAM?
1.75VCore I would guess would be enough for the CPU, I used that here
for 2200MHz on this Barton XP-2500.
Bottleneck for the motherboard won't kick in until apx 198FSB, from
BIOS 1003 onwards they retarded FSB performance for 200FSB
compatibility. I would try for 195-197FSB with he above mentioned
settings. Other than that, not knowing you're memory well off hand, you
should investigate what other slower timings are good for it @ 200FSB.
Lastly, keep RAM @ 100% always...
Good luck
