Fiddeling with Jumpers on ASUS mobo & SPECIAL RAM for OVERCLOCKING

I know what a motherboard looks like, and that's about all.
I've read how most mother boards offer the changes needed
for overclocking in the BIOS.

Asus isn't as easy. One has to fiddle with Jumpers (whatever
they are.) How does one fiddle with Jumpers? Details appreciated.

Also, how did you finally go about re-setting the voltage on
your mobo? What voltage did you select and why?

For the price, one can pick up a Celeron 266 with a 3 year
Warrenty for $100 ! Overclock it to 400+ with no problem???<g>
To pay for the Level II cache on a PII 400, that would cost
an additional $400+. Celeron overclocking is looking better
and better everyday. I just don't know how important
Level II cache is - any one have a clue? What exactly does
Level II cache do? Overclocked Celerons in a DUAL mobo may
be a very inexpensive alternative as well!

SPECIAL RAM for overclocking: HIGHEST QUALITY
Anand Tech says there are only two brands of RAM for
Overclocking at the 133 FSB. All the others peter (sorry Peter)<G>
out at 112 FSB. The two are found at Ram Warehouse and Megatrends.

Anand Tech recommends:

Anyone have a preference between these two places?
(Tom likes Ram made from Samsung Chips - how can we tell what
kind of chips their RAM is made from?)
