Rocky,

>>Macs really are faster than PC's!<<

Dollar for dollar, my computer is faster and more fully featured than your Mac.

>>I am running the motherboard at 66Mhz but am afraid to overclock it as I fear my PCI cards won't work right.<<

Afraid? You wimp! Come on, man! Have some balls! Try it.

All you need is some PC100 memory, set the FSB to 100Mhz with 1/3 divider for the PCI bus and 2/3 for AGP, and you'll get the stock 33Mhz for the PCI bus, and 66Mhz for AGP. In this case, all of your PCI cards, including AGP video should work perfectly.

For your 333 Celeron, the clock multiplier is locked at 5 (5 x 66.6 = 333), thus if you jack the FSB to 100Mhz, you should be able to OC your Celeron to 500Mhz, no problem. Just make sure you get a good cooling solution to replace the stock cooler.

>>I can upgrade to a 500MhZ PIII when I feel the need<<

P3-450 would be a better choice, price wise.
