FSB will be 133, multiplier cannot be changed on intel cpu's anymore, vcore should be auto set by your board (all these settings should) what motherboard are you using?

533Mhz which is 133x4, but to be at 2.8Ghz you have a 21x multiplier... vcore will be stamped on the top of the CPU.

Don't worry about vcore, it will auto detect in the BIOS. You shouldn't even need to touch the FSB setting, as that is usually auto detected too.
