P3 would be a fairly good upgrade, but you'd probably do just as well with a Celeron 1.1Ghz.... and it'd be a LOT cheaper... the newer Celerons run at 100Mhz FSB and have all the SSE instructions set from the P3 too... just less L2 cache... and you're more likely to be able to OC that a bit too...

Check the prices and make a decision based on that... I would have thought the Celeron would be the cheapest option though...

From the Abit website (http://www.abit-usa.com/eng/product/mb/be6r2.htm) regarding Abit BE6 II:

"...Supports Intel PentiumŪ III / Celeron 450~800 MHz processor cartridge..."
