One of the IBM Aptiva's (K6-2-300) has 100 MHz bus. Tomshardware.com said he did not have difficulties with any of the 11 motherboards he tested. Socket 7 motherboard problems are a thing of the past.

Recently I stumbled across a motherboard review in a German publication, which painted a pretty bad picture of the current Super7 motherboards, particularly in terms of quality and reliability. I now have to draw a preliminary finish line to give you my opinion about the current state. Compared to the big socket 7 review I did last year I have to say that I didn't have more troubles this time than I had back then. The majority of the tested boards runs reliably at 100 MHz front side bus clock with PC-100 SDRAM.

350 MHz systems will all run at 100 MHz bus
