Does anyone have any suggestions for a s370 motherboard that has a max cpu speed of at least 1.2ghz with fsb being 100mhz? I need to find a mobo that will fit my compaq deskpro case and that will run off the power supply i'm currently using for my slot 1 550mhz pentium 3 cpu. any suggestions would be greatly apretiated.
You also need to acertain what form factor your board is. ATX, SFF etc. There are some out there..... I have seen them
My dad's been running the Asus TUSL2-C with a Celeron 1.2GHz in it for a few years. Still running like a champ. It's not the only one, but it's the first one I can think of. Anything with the Intel i815E chipset should support a Celeron/Pentium III with the Tualtin core (like your CPU).
This is the motherboard i decided to go with...only problem i see with it is that it doesn't have an AGP port and i was kinda hoping to upgrade the graphics card to 64mb so i can play some games. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6805707127&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWN:IT&rd=1 so what do you guys think about my choice? EDIT...looks like my mobo is an intel 810e chipset
Depending on the quality, I'd say you might be okay. If not, any solid 300W unit should sufficiently power a rig with that CPU in it.
i'm gonna be using either a dell or a compaq power supply...also i have this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6804319752&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWN:IT&rd=1 HSF, someone recently told me that it wouldn't be sufficient to cool a celeron 1.2ghz...the spec sheet says something completely different...oh well any advice would be helpful on that as well.
