Cannot offer a dead certain answer but i clocked my P4 2.53Ghz (northwind core) to 3ghz with standard cooling an increase of 500mhz.So yours if like mine should go to 3.3ghz and possibly i little higher. If your are running at 138fsb then is your multiplyer running at 21x. So leaving this at 21x you should be able to go to 157-158mhz fsb. remember to only to go up 1mhz at a time and if the pc freezes or refuses to start you might have to open it and reset to defaults manually.

Also you can permently damage you cpu doing this so if you are not prepared to replace the cpu would not bother doing it

I couldn't do it.

I've got a 2.8 Northwood in a ASUS P4P800-E and it runs stable overclocked to 3.36GHz (FSB 160)



That ASUS board has an overclocking tool in the bios. It's OC'd by 20% ... at 30% it doesn't even boot up.
