motherboard: Soyo SY-P4I875P DRAGON 2 (Platinum Edition)
Ram: Corsair XMS Extreme Memory Speed Series 184 Pin 512MB DDR PC-3200C2PT
CPU: Intel Pentium 4/ 2.8C GHz 800MHz FSB, 512K Cache, HT Technology
AGP Card: Gainward fx 5900

I has hoping that someone can help me with the correct setting on how to over clock my AGP card and my cpu to around 3.4 ghz. this is a site i found that proves it can be easily done in the bios but im an amature OCer and dowt want to screw anything up. http://www.extrememhz.com/dragon2-p1.shtml
i am using stock cooling and so far able to get my FSB up to 880mhz and my cpu speed up to 3080mhz with my system clock at 220mhz. its a start but i would like to go faster and was hoping someone out there could give me a kick in the right direction.

Overclocking the 800 mhz P4 is not difficult. The only challenging part is memory settings, since board makers chose different approaches. However, the result is the same.

I think 250 FSB is very attainable. I have three P4 800, the least is running 255 FSB and hihgest at 270. I am not as lucky as many others, my sets require 1.675 volt to make everything stable.

Here is the trick, memory setting: Just because someone has the name brand stuff does not guarantee it will overclock well. In my case, I happened to be lucky with a pair of cheap Apacer PC3200 running 512 mhz.

In the Abit board, it uses memoery ratio, i.e. 1:1, 3:2, 5:4 etc.

In Asus board, it uses the memory speed, i.e. 266, 333, 400 etc.

I don't know what your board is using. But, try to set your timing to the most relax to begin with (deal with tight timing after you get the highest FSB), like 3-4-4-8.

Set the memory either at 5:4 ratio or pick 333 (like the Asus board). You might have to set it even lower if it does not work, i.e. 3:2 and 266.

Your last question with Nvidia card, I use the lastest drive from Nvidia and CoolBits.

Have fun, and don't cry if it fails.

Firstly to push your CPU any higher, I strongly recommend that you use a 3rd party heat sink fan from say thermalright / zalman / swiftech.

Your RAM would work best with a 5:4 divider. You will need to increase your Vcore as well for higher overclocks.

It is not necessary that you must replace your Intel Stock Heatsink/Fan when you overclock P4. Many would agree with me and as many would oppose.

I've tested enough 3rd Party HSF, none beats Intel stock unit by 3-5 C. And, none could be quieter than Intel unit.

check out each of everyone of them. Read the above ambient delta column. Those can beat Intel Stock unit have almost higher noise level and expensive, and not by much. With so much variables in case ventilation, the difference is unimportant.

Use your Intel Stock unit and throw one of these in from www.koolsolutions.net
