Howdy just picked up this board to have as a backup to play my old military flight simulators games with in future. Was wondering if any old users of this board know what is the highest CPU for both the Slot 1 and the Socket 370. Questions below.

1. Which CPU style had trouble with HSF not fitting?

2. Will a Slot 1 P3 coppermine 1ghz 133mhz,100mhz CPU work?

3. I take it a Socket 370 P3 coppermine 1ghz 100mhz and 133mhz does work?

4. Will a Tulitan Celeron 3 1.4ghz work with a slot Tulitan adapter?

5. Will a Tulitan P3 1.4ghz 256k or 512k server version work with a slot Tulitan adapter?

6. Any problems with Ram configuration?

7. Anything to watch out for with this board?



Thanks for any info!

I had alot of these boards this was a dual slot 1 / 370 they do not work w/ Tulains unless you had the specaial adaptor / slocket that upgraded the VRM's .18 micron coppermine p3's worked fine but anything newer was a no go w/out an adaptor and the last bios 1.07 tyan released for it didn't work w/ Agp 4x you had to drop down to 2x for stability, this was a via apollo pro 133a based board.

Edit: this was actualy the first mass market motherboard to suport stk 370 and .18 micron coppermine CPU's thats why I got one at first.
