KT7a rev 1, XP 1800+: how do I make it go fastest

[J]

KT7a rev 1
athlon 1800+ XP palomino
2- 256m Crucial sticks
Matrox 450 duel head

What do I need to do with this chip to unlock the multiplier?

I have read way too many articles and am completely unsure of what to do with this particular chip.

After the mod, what BIOS settings are recommended?

What RAM is now considered the most OC-able for the KT7a?

And so on.

Close the L1 bridges.

12.5x133 if you unlock the cpu. That will give you 1666MHz. You might get a little more out of it by raising the FSB if your ram can take it.
