Hi,
I'm getting an old Amd K6 cpu @ 300mhz and I'm looking for a super socket 7 motherboard to put it in.
It appears that some of these old mobos could only cache the first 128/256/512mb ram & beyond that performance would degrade considerably. Since win98 probably can't handle more than 256-512mb very well anyway I don't mind the latter but 128mb would be very restricting.
Another consideration is that I want to overlcock the FSB up to 100mhz (to use with pc100 or pc133 sd-ram), so that I go from 4.5*66mhz to 3*100mhz (keeping the cpu at its original 300mhz speed).
I don't need a ton of ports, just agp(2x), at least 3 PCI & maybe and 1 ISA. Would also be nice if it isn't too big (e.g. baby-at size). And while we're at it having ATX power would also be nice, so I won't have to hunt down an old AT powersupply :p
So given these parameters, which old mobo fits best?
