Interesting...but...is this a 7% speedup versus a smaller swapfile and still using the "Use more ram" option?

Also, is that Athlon a B (100Mhz FSB) or C (133Mhz FSB) ?

The mobo you mention has a variety of FSB's available between 100 and 133 but only 140 and 150 are selectable >133.

Here's a little tool that might help you:

Let me know how it goes.

Oh, another thing..close all L7 bridges on the CPU (with a pencil) and it'll default to 1.85 VCore (default is 1.75), that will give you more headroom.
