I know this may have been gone over many times but I can't find the exact answers I'm looking for so once again here it goes.
Are all Celeron processors built the same in the aspect of working with the motherboard. What I'm talking about is I know the P3 made a couple of different chips and the newer ones (which ones?) won't work on the same socket 370 boards. Are celerons the same? I'm running a Celeron 633 oc'd to 770 on an AOPEN AX-34 ProII board. The board site and manual says it will support up to a 1gig but I suspect it will go higher.
I'm on a budget so I know oc'ing a Celeron is probably cheaper that a P3 or replacing the board and processor for a AMD XP or even a P4. The board I have will support cpu voltage from 1.30v-2.05. It has multiplier setting to 8x. It supports FSB all the way to 150 (140,133,124,120,115,112,110,105,103,100,etc).
Therfore, how high should I be able to go? As I see it, if I could get 150mhz x 8=1200 and that's without voltage changes. Realistically how about it? I want to max this board out before I build a whole new system.
BTW here is my setup: AOPEN AX-34PROII, CELERON 633@770 with 80mm panaflo L1a, 384MB Crucial PC133, GeForce 256 32MB, Pioneer 16/40 DVD, HP 8x8x32 CDRW, Trendware 56k modem, AC-97 onboard sound , linksys 10/100, maxtor 7200 rpm hdd...
Thanks in advance,
Phil
