Hi, i have a ABIT BE6 motherboard along with MSI M6909(not sure about the model name) convertor.

to convert Slot1 to PGA370 socket for P3-700e coppermine.

I want to know if i still use this socket convertor, can i use todays celeron?

my motherboard's multiplyer is at 10x and fsb at 150mhz

so is it correct that i can use a celeron with 1000mhz(1ghz), 100mhz fsb,

and most important... if the celeron say FC-PGA socket, that means i can use it right?

is what about "Tualatin"? is it FC-PGA or FC-PGA2?

for now i just want to get the most from my current setup... ABIT BE6 motherboard(SLOT1), MSI-m6909(convert slot 1 to socket 370), 256mb PC133 ram, Radeon 9100 128mb.

thanks

I think the Tualatin runs on a lower voltage than your motherboard supports, but your slocket adapter may be able to compensate for it (check the documentation that came with it.)
