Paul: One of the "features" of the Intel BX motherboards is the autodetect function for bus speed. That means the BIOS will query the processor, and if it is a 333 or below, the motherboard will automatically set the bus speed to 66MHz. Whether Asus, Abit, Micronics etc. will do the same thing remains to be seen. With a PII/333 and a true 100MHz motherboard and PC100 SDRAMs, one should be able to stably overclock to 400MHz. I think Tom has overclocked the beast to 415 MHz (5x83). Adrian
