Okay.

Here's what I have.

XP2100
Iwill Xp333
Samsung (true) PC2700
Asus Geforce 4 ti4600

Everything is installed. Not a bit of trouble.

I have WinME running right now. Had to mess around with the motherboard a bit and now it's seen as XP2100.

K is there a site where someone successful has posted their bios settings? Those are a must and I really need them, perhaps you?..hehe.

1. Nowhere in the bios can you set your AGP 2X/4X, where do i set this at?
2. I have my jumper(on motherboard) set to 2.6 for my ram.
3. I have the the jumper completely removed for the 100/133 jumper.
4. What is the highest you can overclock this with air cooling using the fsb? 13X??? 13X133=1733 13x???..hehe K along with this? do I run my ram as Ultra or Fast or what? do I use Cas 2 or 2.5? What about Divider? How about voltages...so many things. I'm used to the ease of the KT7/KG7..heh.

Pretty much I'm needing your experience here, or anyone elses who has this m/b with Xp2100..or whatever.

Will be back in morning to hopefully find the settings I need..hehe.

See ya'll. For now.

gotta love those sites who have your bios settings page for page so you know what you're doing...anyone?

Sorry I did not get back to you sooner its been a long day.

1. you can't set the AGP its done automatically
2. You will just have to run up the FSB until you find the CPU Max. I would put the RAM at conservative settings Cas 2.5,Normal,and leave the Bypass at 2.5 always it is actually faster then 2. Then run the FSB up till its unstable and then give a lil more voltage and try again do this until you know your CPU's max. Then when you know that then you can keep upping the mem timings till they become unstable. But you will really need to unlock that 2100 to really get the max performance. You will prolly find your max FSB wil be in the mid 140's till you unlock. Oh and you should set the Mem at 2.8v jumpers on 5-6 and 2-3.
3. Set the divider to 1/4 for up to 166, 1/5 for up to 200 qand 1/6 for higher than that.

If you have more questions ask away and most importantly...Have Fun

Sorry I hadn't gotten back in this thread. Been pretty busy here.

The system I built for this guy, I now wish was mine..hehe.

I would recommend the IWILL XP333 to anyone who's into moderate overclocking. I cannot tell you how it is on a higher bases as I never did get a chance to unlock his chip. It's a VERY stable board despite some bad reviews I've read.

Yes, it has issues but as you said NY with a little tweaking it's a solid board. Thanks for the help. I also visited here http://vr-zone.com/cgi-bin/vb/showthread.php?threadid=3639&highlight=flash and this guy took notes through his XP333 experience and it helped alot as well.

Well the final results were 1733 @ 1820 13 X 140 @ 1.8v. Nice benches as well. Can't imagine how much more I could have done had this been my system..hehe.

As for the guy I built it for, well, he's upgrading from an AMD 200mhz, 64meg, Voodoo3 2000PCI, 2 gig HDD.

Now with this, IWILL XP333, Samsung PC2700 256mb, Athlon XP2100+ @ 1820mhz, Geforce4 Ti4600...he's screaming and with a drop of the jaw!

Thanks again.

Yeah that is a huge jump, and yes that board has been a bit maligned but it is a solid board. I am ordered an 8K3a yesterday and I cannot wait to see what that board can do.
