fastest socket 370 cpu

[jmuphpdude]

i've got a socket 370 celeron 466 right now and i'm looking to upgrade in the near future... what's the fastest chip i can drop into my box, assuming the motherboard can handle it (im pretty sure it can)?

thanks,
john

533...

It won't be worth the change though.

Is it a BX motherboard per chance?

Intel P3 1ghz.

edit: actually, yea 533. Thats PPGA not a S370 cpu.

ah, well that sucks =) the chipset is a 440zx. the mobo is an abit zm6, but with all the problems i've had with it (this is the 3rd one, i have shipped two back to the company already) i decided i'd just budget myself $1500 to buy parts for a spiffy athlon system instead =)

im graduating in may, and plotting to buy all the toys ive had my eyes on for the last 2 years =)

thanks,
john
