--- Quote from: Richy on June 10, 2003, 02:43:42 pm ---I have 310mb ram and 300mhz. Lots of games don't run and only a few are better since i added an extra 256. I'm planning on upgrading the processor to run neogeo games. Does anyone know what's the max you can upgrade a pII? --- End quote --- I have my old Abit BH6 mobo which is a P2 mobo running a 1.1GHZ celeron now. You may be able to stick one in yours too. First you need a 440BX motherboard (not bx-2) and it can't be by intel. It must be like asus, gigabyte, abit, or MSI someone who makes boards you can overclock. Then you have to upgrade the bios to the most recent one, i think it's number 17, it's been a while since i did it. Then you need to get a slocket adapter for an FCPGA chip not the PGA slocket adapter that won't work. Then you just need the processor. I think you can put all the way up to a 1.4GHZ celeron in there. You can always take the easy route though and buy the slocket with processor from powerleap(www.powerleap.com). They lowered some of thier prices you can get a celeron 1ghz with slocket adapter for $100 from them. Probably cost you $60 if you bought the parts seperately off pricewatch. |
