Firstly i would lower the HT to x3 ( i think your CPU starts at x4, my 3500 defaults at x5, anyway lower the HT by x1) the HT multiplier seems to be the major limiting factor when OC'ing a Athlon 64, this is from personal experience. With my 3500 i couldn't even up the FSB to 210 without the system failing until i lowered the HT multi to x4, now i have a stable system running 10x245 = 2.45Ghz with RAM at 166 (204.5MHz with the OC added) and HT at x4.
