Max PIII on Intel WS440BX Board

[chrisharris]

I need more speed. Hopefully someone can help.

It's an Intel WS440BX Socket 370 mobo with 100mhz FSB. CPU is PIII 550mhz. AGP chipset 1996 I think.

384mb of 168pin DIMM SDRAM 16x8 low density PC133.

Windows XP Home

Whats the max CPU speed I can plug into this board? 750mhz? 800mhz? 1ghz? Where can I get this lightening fast PIII?

Thanks in advance.

To be honest with you, you'd probably be better off buying a new CPU/mobo combo than upgrading. PIII's cost way more than they're worth right now, like $100 for a 1.13ghz chip. I'd imagine, though, that'd be the highest you could go. I think PriceWatch has some PIII's listed, still.
