Does anyone know if 533 MHz FSB CPUs will work in a Kontron 886LCD-M/Flex motherboard please?

The manual only lists 400 MHz so what would happen if I put a Pentium M 780 with 533 Mhz FSB in it?

Since it's an 855 chipset and an industrial mainboard without overclocking ability, my expectation is that it would run the CPU but only at the lower 400mhz bus speed. That would result in the CPU running at 1.7GHz instead of 2.26GHz 😒
