P4T-E Overclock

[Dennis]

Does anyone have experience overclocking a P4T-E?

I'm new at this. I've slowly been raising my FSB and now have it at
112 and everything has been fine at 2.91 gzh and 54c temp under max
load. I understand if I raise the FSB much further I will have issues
with my ram and pci cards...? Could someone tell me from experience
how far this system can be overclocked? and how/when do I need to deal
with the ram/pci issues with this specific motherboard (i dont see any
place to raise voltage or alter pci speeds, am I missing it?)

mb: Asus P4T-E
cpu: P4 2.6gzh 400fsb (northwood?)
ram: rdram800 4 x 256


Thanks in advance

Hello Dennis,

Does anyone have experience overclocking a P4T-E?

Yes, and it runs fine

I'm new at this. I've slowly been raising my FSB and now have it at
112 and everything has been fine at 2.91 gzh and 54c temp under max
load.

I have a 1.8 GHz P4 running at 2.16 GHz, by raising the FSB to 120.
This gives me a perfectly stable system with the P4 going to 52 - 56 øC
(depends on the temp of the room it's in <g>) at full load for 15
hours. And i have the processor fan regulated down to below 1500 rpm
under these conditions.

I understand if I raise the FSB much further I will have issues
with my ram and pci cards...?

I had to switch the keyboard from PS/2 to USB to get to this FSB. A
little bit higher is possible but then the pc gets instable after
running for sevceral hours at full load.

Could someone tell me from experience how far this system can be
overclocked? and how/when do I need to deal with the ram/pci issues
with
this specific motherboard (i dont see any place to raise voltage or
alter
pci speeds, am I missing it?)

I have no idea. Simply to lazy to go for these detaiuls and i'm happy
with a free extra 20% <g>
