    Hi there..
    About to build a new pc hopefully.. celeron 400
    Can i use pc-100 SDRAM with the celey's 66mhz FSB?
    Also has anyone tried clocking the FSB of the celeron to 100..
    Im looking to go fir either a AOpen BX6BC or Abit BH6 mobo.. they both seem about equal..
    cheers

    Yes the 100MHz SDRAM will work and no the Celeron 400 wont run on a 100MHz FSB(Front Side Bus) cause the chip is locked at 6x so on a 100Mhz bus the chip would fry at 600MHz
    Hope this helps,

    I wonder wpould it go below 100..
    say 75, 83

    75x6 = 450, still decent enuff

    and 83 would give 498

    ?

    Noooo put the chip at 600 and keep it in ure freezer, beside the frozen peas would be best......

    Humm. You should be able to get it to go at 75 or 83, though you will need **extra** cooling and may have some PCI timing probs.

    Check out http://www.sharkyextreme.com/ lots of nice stuff there, and a profile of Celeron over****ability (wow!) for the various CPUs.
