Pure rumor. I've read alot of speculation about this, but never actually seen it proven. All of the chips are locked to their respective clock multiplier (ie 300a = 4.5x 266 = 4.0x 333=5.0x etc.) but are not locked in to any one frequency or bus speed. This is what allows you to take a 300a that was meant for a 66mhz bus and OC it to 100, 103mhz or even higher bus speed. Everyone I have used has always responded happily to 100 mhz bus and usually 103. Seems like I read that Intel will never do this, for some technical reason, but can't come up with the specifics right now. Anybody else have any experience with this? Dan
