No Celerons above the PPGA 533's, Intel got greedy and doesnt want any one SMP'img there cheaper ship......

The PIII's will work, but Motherboard mod's are nessary, along with NEO adapters..........

DAM YOU INTEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil:

2 x Celeron 1400MHz Tualatin In-A-Box (Socket 370 / 256KB / FSB 100MHz)
or
2 x Pentium III E 700MHz (Socket 370 / 256KB / FSB 100MHz)

Thanks!

As of now, no has been able to run one or dual Tualatin CPU's on a BP6. If you want to run dual Pentium III CPU's, you will have to modify the mainboard. This is not for the faint of heart. :)

PCI Voltage

Does the BP6 support PCI 3.3V, also specified as PCI 2.2 compliance or is it 5.0 v only?
Thanks ,

Is 533 the max for multiple processing, without reaching for the soldering iron?

How does a dual Celery 533 perform in comparison to a single 1100

Does XP Pro perform a bit / lots / or loads better when loaded with two CPU's?
533 is max with no solder iron.

Different posters will have different opinions about 1.1 .vs. dual 533. It will depend on what you want to run on your BP6. Personally, I think a SMP system has a more balanced respond with overall system performance compared to a single processor system.

It really boils down to this: If you do a lot of multitasking, go dual. If you tend to do one thing at a time and/or play games a lot, go with the faster single CPU.

The multiplier is locked on Intel processors (expect for Engineering Samples). On the BP6, if you want to overclock, increase the FSB.

Unfortunately, the C3s won't do the duallie tango. :-(
