ok. i have 4 sticks of RAM, all pc100. i have my comp at 100mhz FSB now. only one stick, the one that came with my comp (64mb, pc100@cl2) can run at 124mhz FSB but only at cas3. which is better. i'd rather use more than 64mb so i can play quake 3. i also have the components shown below. would taking out my sound card and LAN maybe help me reach the goal i have of a 558mhz proc?

Naaa I got f'ed on this memory that was suppose to be Micron Cas2 PC133, but its generic **** and I cant get it past 118mhz (I got a 700E 100x7) and i gotit at 118/8 = 868... I put some PC100 also kinda cheap, but better than what I got I can run it at 124 with no prob.. (But also 64 megs...) What you need to do is go buy 1 stick of PC100 or 133 or Crucial or Simple Memory Cas2 try ECC and you should have NO probs o/cing more :-)

P.s. I just stuck with the PC133 at 118 cuz i have 256 of it
