So, somehow I started overclocking, not quite sure how.

Specs:
Asus A8V deluxe
Venice 3200
LBBLE 0516EPGW
z639006D51226
XP-90
Corsair XMS

So, first, I dropped my CPU multi to 8x, then kept pushing my fsb up until it hit 300mhz which is what my board tops out at, passed memtest with zero errors each time. Was this the right thing to do? And, I thought that FSB was only on intel's, so why is FSB in my BIOS? And, I can't seem to find anthing called HTT...which I thought was the same as FSB, so is this right? Second, I was reading the OC guide and it said somthing about HTT multiplier? Is this the same as CPU Multi? But, it says it goes up to 5x, 4x on Socket 754's. Where do I find this? I looked in all of the setting I could find...


Oh, and in the BIOS under cpu, it doesn't show up which cpu I have, but in other sectoins it does...and it says my RAM timings are 3-3-3-8, but Memtest says that they are 2.5-2-2-5...so which do I believe? I think that that is all for now...thanks.
