RE: [Wlug] Searching for motherboards (was trading PIII)

by Clint Moyer

I have an Abit BX6r2 that I no longer use. I was running a Celeron 566 (nominally 66Mhz FSB) at a 100Mhz. A P3 850 uses the same multiplier, so it will run on this board. It's also a great overclocking board. You won't get that with an Intel. I can bring it to the next meeting and you can test drive it first. If you're interested, I'll let it go cheap.

Searching for motherboards (was trading PIII)

by Stephen C. Daukas

I'm broadening the search a bit, and was wondering if anyone can recommend some local hardware shops... By way of repeating my situation, and giving a bit more detail, I have a SECC2 (a.k.a. slot 1) PIII 850 processor that won't run on my motherboard (an Intel SE440BX-2 Slot 1 type) because of motherboard rev issues. I am offering a swap for a SECC2 PIII running at 550 or 600. I am also now looking to see if anyone knows of a local source for a motherboard capable of running a Slot 1 PIIIs at 850. This is older technology (Intel no longer make Slot 1), so I need to see what I can find that is already in the distribution channel. I really like Intel boards, so Intel would be my first choice. Anyone know of a local source, Intel or otherwise? Thanks! Steve

I don't think they'll give you too much grief, they haven't said a word to me about the SSH holes I have in my firewall as well. And since so many people on there are using PCs exposed to the outside world, how can they tell if you're providing a service, or have just been totally hacked and providing a web page for nefarious purposes.

Re: [Wlug] Anyone interested in trading PIII CPU's?

by John Stoffel

Tim> That seems kind of odd. I would think you'd be able to run the Tim> 850 underclocked to 600 without any problems. The PIII chips are fixed clocks, you can't change the multiplier on them (like you could on the celerons). At least that's what I remember. As for a trade, I've got a suspect motherboard with a pair of PIII 450s (or so, I can't remember right now) that I'd be willing to sell/trade. I think the only thing I sorta maybe looking for is a really good sound card to use with Linux. My DELL Precision 610MT (dual PIII Xeon 550) has a crappy builtin sound card (which I can't get to work with ALSA) and I'm not happy with the Avance ALS4000 card I have either. I'll try to make the next thursday night meeting and bring stuff for trade/sell. John
