I have 2 of these boards lying around and wanted to make them useful. I have the latest bios on them and I think the highest multiplier is 9.5. Whats the highest cpu that could be used in the Slot 1 config.? Or better yet, whats the highest cpu that could be used with a slotket on these boards?? Any help would be appreciated....TIA

slot 1 guaranteed: PIII1000E, slotket: any 100MHz, non-tualatin chip or try your luck with any of the 133MHz FSB chips.

On the powerleap adapter or a modded slotket the new Tualatins will work, 1.3 PIII-S and 1.4 Celeron

I have a 1.1A Tualatin running 1.42GHz on my BX6r2.

Multiplier has no bearing since all Intel chips that would work are multiplier locked and that setting is ignored.
