Hello,
I'd like to upgrade my Slot 1 Mainboard from a Pentium 2 233 Mhz to a Pentium 2 333 Mhz.
The Voltage seems to be different (2.0 instead of 2.8 V) and i couldn't find anything about that in the mainboards manual.
Does the Mainbaord set the CPU voltage automatically?

This is my mainboard: https://theretroweb.com/motherboards/s/gigabyte-ga-686blx

Hello.

The motherboard does support PII-333 according to the manual and the core voltage is set automatically.
