I have this old computer (ca. year 2000) with a Tyan S1854 Trinity 400 as
motherboard. What is the fastest Intel CPU still available on the market
that I can mount on it? (Currently it has a Pentium III 800MHz and 1.5G of
memory.) I went to the Tyan web site and found a chart with recommended
CPU's, but due to my limited expertise in this field I cannot figure out
what they are talking about...

PS: I am not interested in swapping the motherboard for a newer one, or in
overclocking the CPU that I currently have.

Thanks for your help.

I have one with a P733Mz in it, friend has one with a 1Gz. Have a saved post
from awhile ago docs using same. Is the hassle worth it for 200Mz is my
question?

Thanks, BC, for such an exhaustive, easy-to-understand explanation! I
really appreciate the great length you went in answering my question.

You can find Pentium III 1ghz dirty CHEAP. Here's the link:

http://www.pricewatch.com/cpu/

There are lots of stores listed there selling any cpu you want.

I once brought a PIII Tualain 1.4ghz for only $47 listed there several
months ago.
