Stream - Pentium III builds update and new builds | Testing the Gigabyte GA-6BXC - 2024 07 20

Not until about 1hr 30 minutes in, do I realise the motherboard BIOS is not capable of running a P3 CPU! Booted with P2 CPU installed.
Updated the BIOS but I could only get the Celeron 533MHz CPU to run.
More work will be required to get the P3 1000MHz running.

I had one of these 440bx gigabyte boards back in the day, and I remember that when I switched to a P3 800, it involved setting the dip switches on the board in a way that was not listed in the manual.
I only knew about how to set it because it was mentioned on an internet forum at the time.
I previously had one of those Celeron 300A at 450, and to get that to work you had to tape off a couple of the pins on the CPU card.

I have both those boards. put the latest bios on them , and you will have some good overclocking boards.
