Posted by: Rayvix

hello everyone. I have a question concerning my k7vta3 mobo, in conjunction with my amd ath. xp 2400+. my mobo supports 200/266/333 fsb speeds. If I run it at 200, it identifies my processor as an amd..... 1800+. at 266, it identifies it as a 2400+ (thats where I'm at now) however, when changing it to 333, it gives me the finger, and wont boot up at ALL. as in black screen at power on. Is there a limit to what the amd ath. xp 2400+ can take?

What you're doing is overclocking. By setting your processor at 333 fsb, you're running it at almost 500MHz above the rated speed. The chip probably won't be able to run at that speed without more voltage
