Would an Intel Seattle SE440BX-2 mobo support a celeron 800? Any idea? Intel's Website states that this mobo will support up to 850 Mhz P3's, but I'm not sure if that would also mean Celeron 2's (like the 800 or 850Mhz celeron w/100Mhz FSB)

Anyone know??

thanks

Hello,

Actually it can unoffically support up to a 1Ghz PIII or the 1.1 GHz Celeron with a Slocket.

hth,

Alright!!! The Powerleap site shows their adapter is compatable with my SE440BX- thought it was forever stuck at 450MHz, KpocAlypse you da man!

<< What about the 133 fsb issue? Can the board be tweaked to run at 133? >>



I ordered the board for kicks (only ~$39) I will let you know when I get it

Well, being that I'm not an overclocker and I'm going to be running a celeron, that's a good thing. What I'm looking for is STABILITY :)

<< seeing that it's an intel bx board, I suspect your only options will be 66 or 100fsb! :( >>



what about a program like SoftFSB or CPU Cool?
they should be able to do adjust it..
i can get my BX board to do 66, 68, 75, 83, 100, 103, 112, 133 with SoftFSB
