What's the fastest Celeron CPU an Abit WX6 motherboard supports?

As topic. I believe it only supports up to 533mhz but I could be wrong. The manual doesn't shed any light on it. Do any of you lot know?

Cheers,
Anton

I think it only supports the old Celerons with a 66 Mhz front side bus. I have worked on several, If it is the one I remember, I was surprised that only my PGA 370 Celerons would run ....

The manual says it supports 66mhz and 100mhz FSBs. How about answering my question now?

I tried my best,
The old Celerons (Non fcpga ) were called pga 370's and were 66Mhz front side buss, the newer (but not the newest)Celerons were fcpga 370's and 100Mhz front side buss, the newest (Tulatin fcpga 370) are not compatible with hardly anything. Your board, if I remember correctly only supports the older pga 370 Celerons which I believe topped out at either 566 or 600Mhz...... The 100 Mhz fsb capability of your board allowed for overclocking ....if the CPU could take it. This is all based off my recollection, I didn't go as far as to read a manual .... but neither did you it seems.
