Athlon 64 oc trouble

I have recently built a new cpu (my first) and its running great, but now I am trying to overclock it. I bought AMD because I was told they are more accepting of overclocking. Here is the max I can get to be stable. Please let me know what I am doing wrong and what my settings should be. (I can't even find the multiplier in BIOS)

Hardware-
Case: Aspire ATX Full Tower (6 case fans running)
MoBo: Asus K8V Deluxe
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3000+
CPU Cooling: Thermaltake Silentboost K8
RAM: 1024 MB DDR Corsair XMS PC3200
Vid: ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128 MB All-in-wonder
Power: 420 W

Settings-
CPU FSB: 210 MHz
CPU Speed/Voltage: Auto
DDR Voltage: Auto
AGP Voltage: 1.5V
V-Link Voltage: 2.5V
Performance: Auto

Temp-
CPU: 36C (idle)/ 42C (full)
Case: 26C - 31C


Again, I couldn't find the multiplier in the bios, and I can't figure out why it won't go over 210 MHz .

Also, the Silentboost isn't bad, but if anyone has any suggestions for a better heatsink/fan for the cpu I am open to suggestions.

Sorry for the lengthy post.
Thanks for any help out there
