Hey, I'm buying a Dell Inspiron 3200 notebook from a guy at work tommorrow, I have already looked it over quick , but not sure as to what CPU it has in it, as the battery he had was almost dead, he is including the AC adapter, I know it either has a P2 233 or 266 in it, but what I want to know is what is the fastest possible CPU that I can pop into this thing, I know it depends on whether its MMC-1 or MMC-2, which i'm not sure, but assuming its MMC-1 what is the fastest possible? & assuming it MMC-2 what is the fastest? I believe its suppposed to be 66MHz fsb, & Ive also heard of people poping PC100 in these things does that really work, are these old notebooks OC-able when it comes to memory? The main reason i'm asking is that I don't plan on using it for gaming, maybe Doom 1 & 2 & possibly Duke 3D, maybe starcraft & such, but thats it, but mainly for e-mail, web surfing, & occasional MP3 & video viewing for my parents to use, so obviuosly I want to get as fast a CPU in there I can, and also will be using broadband cable with a wireless card too, so I just want to make sure there is enough processing power to do all this. I have heard of people popping Celeron 433's & 466's & P2 400's in these things but want to know for sure.
Thanks for any help you can provide!!!!
