If your BH6 is a revision 1 board, then with the latest BIOS flash upgrade it will support up to a 500mhz Celeron or up to a 600mhz in a Pentium III. Also will support hard drives up to 40GB. If your BH6 is a revision 1.1 board, it will support up to a 533mhz Celeron or a 700 mhz Pentium III along with 40GB hard drive support. Once again, with the latest BIOS upgrades.

Think a 533 celery, the 8x multiplier prevents u from going faster at least at 66 mhz FSB Md Guy Leach wrote:

Hi, I have an abit bh6 m/board with a celoron 300A o/c to 450 which is running fine. I would like to put a faster celery in it and was wondering what is the fastest processor that this m/board will support? Thanks for any info. cya

Hey Chuck - Is there a good local place to buy Abit or Asus boards from? I'm TOTALLY pissed at the Intel that I have...long story. Also, the VGA that's built in will only do 16 colors at 640x480. What's up with THAT? Total waste...<sigh> Eldred -- Tiger Stadium R.I.P. 1912-1999 Own Grand Prix Legends? Goto http://gpl.gamestats.com/vroc Never argue with an idiot.

I agree, but make sure it's a 533a fc-pga, they run at 800 with 100 mhz FSB. I got the ppga (DOH!). Mark "Martyn Danby" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Think a 533 celery, the 8x multiplier prevents ufrom going faster at
