Any downsides (late-era DOS-compatibility-wise) of the i820 chipset compared to the i440BX?

Here is a short thread with a similar subject: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=62237 The only board that I know about that comes close to your spec is the Abit SH6 (i815E chipset) but it does not have ISA. Yeah, the SH6 (which is extremely rare) is probably the only 815/Slot 1 board. I …

Depending if you ask for official support from motherboard or chipset maker. While it is true tat Intel never officially supported BX at 133 MHz there were motherboards which semi-officially had the support (Abit BX133-RAID) or at least were designed with 133 MHz FSB in mind. In fact BX133-RAID had …

So if I have a motherboard where I can set the multiplier to say as high as 6x (via DIP Switches), yet I put in a CPU that has a locked multiplier (so the switches are ignored) of 10x, what will the motherboard see? Will it go up to 10x, or only go up to 6x?

Are there any motherboards with official support for an FSB at 133mhz (to Support a 1Ghz Coppermine), At least 1 ISA slot, but an Intel Chipset? (440BX or 815?) I've got a Jetway 993AN, however that uses a VIA Apollo chipset.

A 3770K could very well be the fastest you can go on XP. Atleast Intel supplies drivers for IB on Win XP. Also the fastest graphics card i can find that officially supports Win XP is the GTX 780TI. edit: 3770K mentioned above. I have a GTX 960 that has official Windows XP drivers: https://www.asus. …

The leftmost screw hole on most AT motherboards is not round but elliptic and that allows for adjusting the orientation via shifting and rotating so that the other screws align with the holes; have you looked into this? I would wager that your case and not the board is the one out of spec here, …
