Hi all,

I have a dual processor 6BXD board but it is v1.5 - can anyone
tell me what the fastest processor for this board is?

TIA
Andy

Celerons can be used with special slot adapters. But better is to use
PIIIs.

If it helps, I was running 2 x 800MHz PIII CPUs successfully in a rev1.5
6BXD board until quite recently.
