Hello,
I am an ASUS P3B-F owner. Currently I am running this board with a PIII 500 Mhz. I want to update this board to the maximum possible CPU speed. As I am technical but not a PC-specialist I would like to have your 'expert' advise.
So I have checked the bios >> currently 1006 : I have to update this to 1008.004 ; no problem for me
I have checked the revision of this board ; it is 1.04
So normally it must be possible to install a 1 Ghz CPU. (see also : https://www.techspot.com/vb/topic19911.html)
My questions are :
Is this CPU still available on the market ? Prduct nr ? Website?
If I can find such a slot 1 1Ghz CPU ; which other parameters should I verify before I buy it ?
It should be also possible to work with an adapter board to 370 and to install another type of CPU. What are the (dis)advantages ? Limitations ?
Can maybe somebody help me with partnumbers ?
If somebody did already such an upgrade ; please let me know if you were succesful.
Many thanks to you all !!
