CPU question...

[ganoi]

Can a 133Mhz CPU be operational with a 100 Mhz motherboard?
Thanks

Be more specific: What Motherboard do you have and what CPU?
Depends on the BIOS, but, I think you can do that.

Yes, but since it's multiplier is meant for a 133MHz FSB unless you unlock it, it will run at a lower clock speed.

Example-

AMD Thunderbird 266FSB 1GHz = 7.5X multiplier
7.5X and 133MHz FSB = 1000MHz
7.5X and 100MHz FSB = 750MHz

Got it?
