I read that on there page, it says...

(17950) - What processors does the Micronics C400 motherboard support at the present time?
With the 1.05 BIOS or later, the Micronics C400 motherboard supports:

Celeron CPU's 266mhz through 500mhz, PPGA and SECC.
Pentium II's 233mhz through 450mhz
Pentium !!!'s 450mhz and 600mhz (Pentuim !!! B's are not supported. I.e. 133mhz FSB processors)


So, I'm assuming the Fastest Pentium3 that runs on a 100FSB Slot 1?

800 Mhz?

Link says 800Mhz...

So, correct me if I'm wrong, Fastest CPU that mobo will support is a Slot 1 Pentium 3 800 w/ 100FSB?

I found a Pentium 3 850 that run at 100FSB, if theres a slot 1 version of it, will that work?

Thanks!

Well, according to the link you can have a max multiplier of 7.5 which means 750mghz.

The list is a little ways down. No 133 bus support. And without any more BIOS multiplier support, it looks like 750 P3 is your max choice.
