the highest is supposed to be 2.8 for celerons... I want to put a 2.93 or 3.06 in it, does anyone know if this is possible or are those specs really the most it can take?

any help will be GREATLY appreciated.

I have this board and a Celeron D 340 (2.93GHz) that I can test. Give me a day to get them installed and I'll report back. Shouldn't be a problem with P4 support up to 3.4GHz.

I got a successful POST with a Celeron D 340 using the latest BIOS (4AA1) and am running Memtest86 right now. If or when it successfully completes a couple passes of Memtest86, I'll install XP Home SP2 as a more extensive test and report back.

EDIT: OK, I fell asleep last night and woke up to find that Memtest86 had completed 6 passes on 1GB (2 x 512MB) with no errors. XP is installing right now.

XP Home SP2 installed successfully and runs fine with Celeron D 340.
