P3 850E Slot1 CPU + Abit BH6 v1.0?

[Gordon24]

Hello,

Will a Pentium3 850E (8.5 X 100 MHz) Slot-1 processor work with a BH6 v1.0 motherboard (what BIOS version would I need to use)? Or would I need to use a FC-PGA processor + Slot-1 adapter to get the correct voltage?

Thanks.

I'm in the same boat you are in right now. I also have an Abit BH6 rev 1.0 mb. I was told to purchase a P3 700E FCPGA and Abit or MSI slotket. I'm currently looking for a place to purchase the P3 700e. It's much better for overclocking than the P3 850E.

I have a rev 1.0 BH6 and am running a PIII 800Mhz FC-PGA with an Abit Slokit adapter. Runs great, no problems.

I have the latest SS bios upgrade and the 1.65v is supported in the bios.
