What would be reasonable speedwise to run this 300Mhz processor?

@4.0x75Mhz bus speed
@4.5x66,666Mhz bus speed
@5.0x60Mhz bus speed

all equal to 300Mhz but what kind of memory will cope with a specific bus speed setting and allow to disable precharges? and how about 5.5x60Mhz (=330Mhz) and its memory settings in bootmenu?

Thank you very much!
Yes, SCSI is working even with 72MHz :)

Just quick playing with SCSI settings is enough to have it working.
With full memory settings (no read/write waitstates and no precharge) I had to remove the 2nd memory SIMM to make my miggy boot to WB, this was with 66Mhz.

how much ram do you have now?   let me guess you have just limited the card 128Mb.
how stable is the card?
Yes i have 128Mb now, i think i can live with this :), not many progs need the full 256Mb. I just wanted to have max ram ;).
If you guys know what memory is good (manufacturer, brand, type, model etc.) for overclocking please state information here thanks!

and i had to put 60ns mem-settings in bootmenu, then the card was stable (some "minor" issues like if i ran Gears-PPC in a window and tried to start Exchange at same time --> hang).
