ABIT BP6 - Highest Possible CPU?

[Szech]

The BP6 only allows you to use PPGA CPUs, which means that the coppermines are out of the question, unless you get a PPGA to FC-PGA adapter (two actually). I don't know if they make those. Anyway, I read a review that said the Celeron II's have really diabled SMP this time, so if you want a dual celey II system, you might have to wait for another motherboard to support it, and bypass the SMP-lock.

for the best info on this subject I would suggest doing so reading over at www.bp6.com (http://www.bp6.com) There is a ton of info http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

I want to buy an ABIT BP6 to use two celeron's with, but I dont know what is the highest I can use, 2x550mhz for example. I dont particularly want to overclock because I fried a K6-2 chip once by doing this. Also didn't Intel get very cross about ABIT being able to use 2 "cheap" chips as a way of getting a "cheap" SMP system, so they introduced something onto new celeron chips to stop people from being able to do this?
