Francis, Grump Micro carries quite a few Super7 motherboards. K7 works great at 100Mhz bus speed. grumpmicro.com I would suggest you to get an FIC VA-503+ and run K6 or K6-2 on this 112Mhz bus. I am typing using a K6-336Mhz/112 on VA-503+ with 96MB EDO at the timing of 112Mhz!! My K6-336/112 highest Business Winstone97 is 71.4 that I scored tonight. Motherbord: FIC VA-503+ 1MB L2 cache CPU: K6-266 oc to 336 (112x3) RAM: 96MB Micron EDO with (SD)RAM freq=CPU Exteral freq=112Mhz!!! Video card: MGA Mystique 220 4MB with v. 3.82 driver @1024x768x16bit Hard Drive: WD31600 PIO mode 4 with VIA IDE bus master driver As a Cyrix fan, it has been quite amazing for me to witness that the larger L2 cache and higher bus speed patch K6 weakness in L1 cache so well. BTW, don't buy PC100 before you try to use your existing EDO/FP/SDRAM on VA-503+. There is good chance that your existing RAM could work at 100Mhz on this excellent board.
