Intel 600E or 600EB?

I have a chance to get a Pentium III 600E or 600EB fairly cheap. The 600E runs on a 100MHZ bus while the 600EB runs on a 133MHZ bus. I am install one of these in a Gigabyte GA-6VX7-4X-A. I am leaning towards the 600EB since I get the advantages of a 133MHZ bus. Has anyone found a big difference in performance between the 'E' and 'EB' series PIII?
 
If you plan to overclock then get the 600E by all means. As for differences in performance, it's hard to notice using the naked eye. One would need to benchmark the system to see the difference. Only in very memory intensive situations will 133MHz give the edge. Examples are video/audio encoding.
