i have xp2500 barton 333fsb .13micron

pc3200 corsair..

im currently at 184fsbx12.5 2.3ghz
memory is 1:1, im assuming my ram is downclocked (2-3-2-6)

should i lower my multiplier and increase the FSB? how high can my ram go, can i damage my ram (likely or no?)
 
u could possibly take the multiplier down to 12x and the FSB up to 200, which would run your RAM at its rated speed...that won't hurt it....so that would give you 2.4GHz...not bad...100MHz more than ur previous attempt...if that doesn't work, try 12x190 or 195 or something...if you loosen ur timings to, say, 3-4-4-8, oc as high as you can FSB-wise, and then tighten ur timings as much as possible....

good luck!

lol no go, i tried 11x200 to utlize my ram, mobo said no thx


also, when i overclock it overclocks my agp and pci ports, is this normal. it isnt a choice im forced to OC those also, in bios and easy tuner, i use easytuner for cpu temps mainly, but i was hoping it would let me OC independantly., does upping the mhz on pci.agp hurt things? any long term damage involved?
 
yes...do not overclock ur PCI and AGP...if you can lock it urself, set AGP to 66MHz and PCI to 33MHz....it won't do 11x200? that's dumb...what's ur motherboard?
