I think if your really lucky and your ambeint temperature is VERY low, you might be able to reach a FSB speed as high as 225FSB without performing a modification to the VDD (voltage to the nForce2 chipset) Although that depends upon getting a quality nForce2 NB, (NorthBridge) and that your
PSU is supplying stable/adequate voltages. It also depends upon very small things like the types of voltage regulators, and resistors they used on the motherboard itself. With a VDD mod, the sky's the limit, if you priovide adequate cooling for the NB, in fact that couldn't hurt in any case, and is a fairly simple mod. What I would do if I were you, is carefuly remove the
HSF from the NB, and clean it off, applying quality thermal paste, then reattach a more powerful
HSF. Perhaps you have an old Pentium III
HSF lying around, or a small Thermaltake Volcano may work. Make sure it's not too heavy, as you don't want to crack the core of the nForce2 NB. Even if you JUST remove and reapply thermal paste you'll probably see a difference. Your going to be surprised when you do remove the fan that's on there because it barely covers 1/3rd the surface of the chip! I mean how do you think your
CPU would perform if it's
HSF was incorrectly mounted, or too small for the processor? Well your entire ability to reach higher FSB speeds depends upon the performnace of that NB. How it's cooled, and it's receiving adequate voltage.
Anyway, stock you should reach 205FSB - 215FSB.
