If all your boards have maximum 75 MHz bus, try it at 75 x 2.75 (if that multiplier is available) or 75 x 3. Otherwise you want a Super Socket 7 board.

More than a few Intel HX and TX chipset motherboards had the 83 MHz frontside bus clock. http://www.thg.ru/mainboard/19971201/print.html

After watching many YouTube videos about older computer hardware, YouTube began recommending videos about trains - are they trying to tell me something?
