[RESOLVED] Asus P3V4X supports up to ??MHZ.

[Billye]

Hey peeps,
I am looking to get a upgrade for my Asus P3V4x and the Asus site says"The ASUS P3V4X Mainboard is based on the VIA® Apollo Pro133A chipset with ATX form factor for the latest support in Intel Pentium® II/III 233~733+MHz Coppermine and CeleronTM processors" I've heard it can support up to 800MHz, Is this true? or can I go even higher?? Any help will do. Thanks

It officially supports an 800

"Support Slot 1 Coppermine Pentium® III/II 300MHz~800+MHz or CeleronTM Processor (with ASUS® S370 Card Series)"

and people have it working with as fast as
a p3 933 , it should actually do 1Ghz , but i cant find anybody with that combo...

Good Luck!

Billye: A couple of months ago I was going to upgrade my 2 year old 350MHzpII. Instead I ended up building a complete new system. In reference to your question, the P3V4X will support up to 1G+ according to the ASUS Techs. Use the latest BIOS and drivers. Realize also that the board supports UltraDMA/66/UltraDMA/33--- not UltraDMA100. I am waiting(anxiously) today for UPS to deliver my new IBM 46G.7200rpm ATA/100 harddrive and the ATA/100 adapter card so I can run the faster HDD. Info on my system: 850pIII/100MHz, ASUS P3V4X/Apollo Pro133 Chipset/AGP/4X mobo,40G. Maxtor/7200/66 HDD,8.5 Maxtor/5400/66 HDD,256(PC-133)Micron RAM(cas2),Leadtek/WinFast/GeForce/256/32MB videocard,MAXI SOUND MUSE soundcard,Mitsumi Floppy, Acer/50x CD-ROM, Acer/10x4x32 CDRW, Antec/300w./Powersupply and new ATX case, larger heatsink with fans on CPU,Twin/Turbo slot fans on HDD,rear backslot fans(mounted next to videocard), Diamond/SupraExpress/ext.modem. PC WorldBench 2000 performance score-- 179. 3dMark2000 performance score-- 5913(first time). When the new HDD gets here, I will make it the master, remove the 8.5G and switch the 40g. to slave. Total cost including new IBM HDD and adapter card---$1459.00. By the way, the techs at ASUS and Leadtek were very helpful! Good Luck!!

I can get 1ghz with this mobo, or more.

Well I won't have to buy another board for a while since I have a p3v4x and I like the idea of 4 dimm slots and now that I have read it can go past 1 ghz
