This is a small section of a cpuz report on the current processor, what would a cpu of say 750 MHz / 256 / 133 be likely to run at if at all.

Processor 1 ID = 0
Number of cores 1 (max 1)
Number of threads 1 (max 1)
Name Intel Pentium III E
Codename Coppermine
Specification
Package (platform ID) Socket 370 FC-PGA (0x4)
CPUID 6.8.3
Extended CPUID 6.8
Brand ID 2
Core Stepping cB0
Technology 0.18 um
Core Speed 498.4 MHz
Multiplier x FSB 5.0 x 99.7 MHz
Stock frequency 500 MHz
Instructions sets MMX, SSE
L1 Data cache 16 KBytes, 4-way set associative, 32-byte line size
L1 Instruction cache 16 KBytes, 4-way set associative, 32-byte line size
L2 cache 256 KBytes, 8-way set associative, 32-byte line size
FID/VID Control no

I wont add any more as there is loads, but that's the current configuration .

Do you know if a 700 or 750 MHz processor coppermine with an FSB of 133 MHz would run on it, if it would do you know the likely speed run on 100 FSB motherboard.

Thanks.

Should run.

But since FSB is supplied by the motherboard, you know that it will be back to 500MHz.

Too bad you didn't ask about ECC too.

FSB speeds.

I thought the ECC bit question belonged in the hardware section as a separate question, not wanting to complicate things.
