Intel 810 Chipset Socket 370 -- What CPUs can Upgrade?

[tristramshandy]

My pal has got an old HP Pavillion desktop and he won't upgrade to a new rig for a while. I'd like to help him get a faster cpu -- he's got a Celery 466 right now. What are his options? What's the highest mhz cpu he can go to? Can he install a "flip-chip" P3?

Thanks for the help!

need to check the mb,
early 810 mb only takes PPGA Celeron up to 533.
if you want to upgrade to FCPGA Celeron, make sure the mb also supports FCPGA Celeron.

Thanks KingofComputer. That's a good suggestion (he may be stuck).
