Socket 8 to 370

[speed01]

I've been told that you can use a Celeron (Socket 370) in a Socket 8 board, is this true? If so, how?

A company called Powerleap sells an adapter board that allows you to run Celerons in socket 8 motherboards. They are much more expensive than a Celeron alone and as far as I know, they don't sell the adapter alone. I thought about getting a couple, but $380 for two 533's is a little much compared to $250 for two P2 OverDrives.

FriendTech - PowerLeap factory site

Click on the link to the PL-ProII - max 600 Mhz Celeron.

With a Celeron running faster than 600MHz, you must use the PL-Pro/II in conjunction with the PowerLeap Neo S370.
