Not that your system should be compared to this, but my Abit AT7 MB never got past 4835 with the same hardware. Even the Windows XP install disk and ATI drivers were not changed - just the MB.

With more OC options and a faster chipset the NF7-S is more stable and faster. Nice move Abit.

nice score.


Try to bring your multiplyer up and fsb down .You will find that you can over clock higher and get a better score.And more stable

I have tried both more FSB and less and manipulated the multiplier to match. I get my best scores with the lower multiplier and higher FSB. 100% stable at those settings (running them now for four days).
If I get a better processor I may be able to increase the multiplier.

As I understand it for your max overclock:
1) get your cooling right
2) back off your RAM timing, pull your sound card
3) lower your multiplier
4) step up your FSB and test until your max FSB is reached
5) return to normal settings
6) up your multiplier one step at a time and test
7) fine tune your FSB to find your max CPU speed
8) do the math to see what multiplier runs with your max FSB

You got a better way?
