well what kind of cooling are you using?

that'd be my vote, up the cooling and you should be getting another 1-200mhz from that CPU. Also with aftermarket cooling (anything that fits a 9800 series fits a X800 series from what I understand) you should be able to get some xtra out of that XT PE

Finally some little tweaks that I'd hope are already done;

~www.blackviper.com use his guide to disable all un-needed XP services
~set your theme to Win2k and disable 'themes' in the same place that blackviper has you go
~cool your room as well as you can, if its A/Ced crank it up for a bench session; if its fans and air wait till late at night when its cooler, every mhz helps

good luck....
