Hehe yes, the FSB is creeping up a little. With the new FSB of 166/166 to memory. 11.5 X 166 ~ 1900 with a 236W TEC and the SwifTech Quiet Power possibly with voltage options to 2.3V. :D Tom's has shown that an XP at 1886 is on par with P4 Northwood at 3000. :eek:

I spent about 2 hours yesterday, trying to find some good prices on power supplies. I mostly looked at Antec and Sparkle. Guess I'm going to check out the SwifTech too. :)

Thanks for the info.

EDIT: Oh, It's a case. Damn that's sweet!

Power supplies Antec PP412X. You can't go wrong with the Antec. Adjustable 3.30V and 5.00V potentiometer inside for boards that really want juice.

I hear that. I already opened mine up to see if the pots were there.

Hell Yeah. I'll try to find the site. There are two pots, (I think blue and orange) and if you turn them clockwise just a little bit you can up your 5+/3+ rails.

Excellent. That's what I need. What is thier power rating?

The 412 is 235watts combined on the 5V and 3.3V rails.

Damn. I'll need 2 then. That can't be enough power.

I think the EnerMax 465 has lower 5.0V and 3.3V than the Antec 412X. Those are combined just for the 5.0V and 3.3V and when you include the 12V rail, output is 412 watts.

Found out that the KT333 is just like the KT133 where FSB and memory run asynchronously. Just gonna have to wait for the KT333A and hopefully there is a 1/5 divider at 166 FSB.
