Most can be set to auto and others like vcore,VDIMM, RAM timing, and divider can be found be looking on or up on google the product itself. Like the RAM should be set to rated manufacturers voltage. Get CPU-Z that should help. Video card is all software adjusting, no BIOS options to tweak it. Generic RAM will hold back an overclock if you are doing so to this rig.

a barton 3200+ won't OC as well as other XPs, IIRC, because it already has a 400MHz FSB. most DDR memory you'll find will be PC3200 (DDR400) or less, so unless you have something rated for 500MHz or so, you probably won't get too much OC out of it. if you do, you could possibly get another 100-200MHz, which really wouldn't be worth much. you'll get much better gains from overclocking that 7800, honestly.

That is an NF2 chip set, so with a DDR333 RAM setting, the PCI/AGP set to 33/66 and a we bit of voltage to the 3200+ you'll squeeze a bit more out of the FSB.

I had horrible experience with A7V8X-X motherboard and a 2600+ barton. I think It got 200 or so mhz, but ran HOT.

So I'd recommend just keeping it at stock if you're using the oem cpu cooler

If you do up the CPU voltage keep the full load temp below 60c!

A7N8X is nforce2. A7V8X is VIA something or other.. i've owned both, the nforce board is leaps and bounds beyond the VIA board.
