      I highly doubt any will. Read a few articles where those who have alot of experience with OCing/unlocking XP's have blown their 2400/2600+'s. Seems they are much more fragile in this regard.

        IMO, none of the current ones out there (up the the AMD 2600+ XP ) would be able to handle 166 FSB.

          A 1600+ AROIA or AGOIA CPU should do it with ease....my non-unlocked 1600+ AROIA Y can boot into Windows at 1.97ghz, or 187mhz FSB. It doesn't get stable until 1.916ghz, however, with an FSB of 182mhz....takes 2.10v to make it happen...

              I got my 1600+ to boot at 166fsb without ANY changes to the voltage. However my motherboard did NOT like it at all. No amount of voltage increases fixed it so I think it was a agp/pci bus issue. So if the board can handle it natively go for it.
              Wikipedia and Google.... the needles to my tangent habit.

                  Any chance of a 1700+ making it to 1826 ?

                    No way. The Athlon XP 1800+ actual speed is 1533Mhz. Fr the 1700+ you're talking >20% overclock here.

                      I was asking about getting the 1700+ (1466 MHz) at 166fsb (11x166=1826, 26MHz over 2200+ speeds) not what actual speed the 1800+ has.

                      Since the 1600+ could do 182 fsb stable, 1400@1916 MHz, would't the 1700+ be able to do that 1826 MHz ?
