Hi all I have a few socket 7 motherboards laying around that have Pentium MMX 200 in them
This is a little to fast for my liking and want to know if I can fit a 75mhz Pentium Cpu in them? I'm not sure what Cpu types will work with socket 7 the slower the better thanks

Note that you can slow down a Pentium MMX using SetMul. Toggling the various test registers as well as L1 and L2 caches can give that CPU quite a bit of range.

Check out this video by Phil for more details.

Phil also has the charts on his site which might be easier to access when comparing setting rather than scrubbing through the video.
