You must remember that when overklocking a board it's not just the CPU that gets a higher clockrate... everything else on the board does too. That's why overclocked systems might get a snappier SCSI controller and why we get faster simms (and for us lucky ppl that have cards with their own boot meny set a lower speed for the ram selecting perhaps 70ns even if it's 50ns simms sitting on the board).

The 50Mhz and 100Mhz cards doesn't seem to bee the same cards and the manual doesn't specify any jumper that you could perhaps set for differnet CPU speeds so it appears that there's no simple way of speeding up these boards the "right way". The wrong way however would be to try to bypass the part where the 50Mhz is lowered to 25Mhz for just the CPU.
