So I have been reading through years of posts here and other places trying to come to conclusion on what exactly is the best way to max out my Asus P3B-F motherboard (That I want to keep the ISA slots for). I have read that people are getting the Tualatin P3-S 1.4Ghz chips to work with Slotket's through multiple means. Was hoping anyone here with the setup or who knows can help confirm what I am thinking.
As an fyi, I have a P3B-F 1.04 just a fyi with some good but not amazing 133mhz ram (based on the data I found here on Vogons). Multiple video cards ranging from a Voodoo 3 3000 AGP to a Geforce4 ti500.
Here is what I am trying to confirm...
1. Get a normal Slotket from a reputable brand like the Asus or MSI ones but you have to use a modified CPU from the Korean Seller on Ebay (He has a 1.26Ghz up now for the P3-s or a 1.4Ghz for Celeron). Is this all that's need for this setup, a good stock Slotket and a modified CPU? One other question I have here is handling the voltage, how exactly would that be controlled or managed? If the P3-S needs 1.45-1.5 but the mobo only goes to 2, is this what the modified bios is for?
OR....
2. Get a Powerleap PL-IP3 and I can use a stock un-modified CPU, aka the P3-S 1.4Ghz.
My other question is how does the MB support this when it doesn't support natively 133fsb? I saw there is a modified bios, is this what would enable the Tualatin CPU's and that's really the last piece to the puzzle?
Just wondering if I am missing anything else?
Thank You!!!!
