Which slockets have built in voltage regulators?

I've heard that some slockets have voltage regulators and can therefore truly adjust voltage while some only have jumpbers that tell the motherboard what voltage to use. Which ones have the voltage regulators built in. I'm asking because my motherboard only goes down to 1.80 and I'd like to be able to run a coppermine at the default 1.65.

Thanks

I don't remember seeing one yet, even though they were supposed to be out by May 2000. eg. Soltek, etc. Stability problems.

1.8 V should be fine with good cooling.

My motherboard is slot one . . should I run a slot one or socket 370 PIII-800? Which will give me better stability?

The Powerleap PL-IP3 is all you ever wanted. It has an external power supply that uses voltage from its own source. At least, I ordered it because I hope it works.

How much did you get the Powerleap iPIII for. On their website it's $59. I'm weary to spend so much on a slocket . . . it's a lot of money that could be going towards a new motherboard, almost 1/2 the price of one! Thanks so much for the info though, it looks like exactly what I was looking for, just a little too expensive.

Well for me, I have an AT case and don't want to get a new one, so thats what I'm with. Hopefully it works. I'll post it later. It does come with a fan too.
