Overclocking my Rig

I need to figure out a way to get more juice in my Vcore.

I've currently got my Athlon 2500 with a FSB of 220, multiplier's set at 11, Core Voltage is at 2.0, and it's still leaning towards too little juice feeding my processor. Will changing my multiplier fix that? It's pretty damn stable other than having having a leaning towards too little juice. Other than that though, Temp's fine and I'm already getting 2.43 GHz out of it. Would like to decrease my DRam voltage if possible...it's at 2.8 currently, but it's leaning a little towards too high. I'd like to keep my processor's speed where it is if possible, and gain a wee bit more stability. :D Pretty good for a first time overclock if you ask me. ;)

I don't feel like looking for your other thread, so what motherboard and what kind of RAM do you have now?

Get motherboard monitor, and find out what your voltages are within Windows....some motherboards undervolt a little, so when you put in 1.8v, it actually runs it at 1.7v....so check that out.

And may I ask, what could you possibly be doing that demands 2.7ghz rather than 2.4ghz?

And remember, there's an 'edit' button...it's there so you don't have to make 5 posts in a row...
That RAM should be able to go up to at least 250mhz FSB, that's what it's rated for, and many people have gotten 250 FSB's with that motherboard, but they use beta versions of the BIOS. Check the DFI page for those I guess, people seem to have pretty good luck with that board.
