Here is my setup:
Athlon XP 2000+
Asus A7V333 rev. 1.2
512 DDR333
GeForce 4 Ti4200 128MB

According to Asus' spec page for the A7V333, the board supports FSB 266. When I run 3dmark, it says my FSB is at 133. Is that because of the Double Data Rate RAM? I have never been really clear on this and I want to make sure I don't have something set up wrong.

PS, Does anyone have a similar setup that's overclocked? Can anyone point me towards some help so I can squeeze every last bit of horsepower out of this box? My cooling is only adequate now, but it would be well worth it to invest in some fans or something to get some more speed out of it.

Thanks
