I have a 2.0GHz Pentium 4 "A" chip and im just using the standard intel headsink, its on an EPoX 4G4A board. What kind of speeds can I expect to get out of it?
 
Trial and error.

Many factors come into play when overclocking and each computer isn't the same. It depends on your case temp, ambient temp, memory, BIOS version, etc.

So just play around and increase it till it becomes unstable then back down till you feel it's stable.

My guess would be around 2.4 if you have decent RAM and motherboard.
 
The board supports upto 2.4, i have twinmos RAM so i dunno if that is any good.

So do I just play around with the multiplyer?
 
No, you increase the fsb to overclock. You can't change the multiplier on the P4's.
 
You should be able to do 20x133=2660mhz, no problem.
Probably more.
 
It all depends on how high your fsb can go on the mobo and the cpu.
