| FIC board here.
I'm pulling it out of a case, is it worth trying to fix up as a Distributed computing box
Will it take something faster than a Pentium 200 ?
Thanks  |

It will only support a 200mhz cpu...
but it would make a great distributed computing box... why not?!
If it don't then it will sit on the shelf doing nothing... just put in a cheep vid card and a small hd and your off to the races... then load Linux and you're all set!

Apparently you can put a P233 mhz in it.. but put what ever you've got in it....
I am sure it won't matter too much. |

Go to FIC online..... See the writting between the PCI sockets....That is your model number......on one corner there will be a version number of the board. You might be able to put a AMD K6-III 450 cpu on it....which runs some where in the neighborhood of a PIII 450.
Here is the link FIC
Guess I should of clicked on your link and looked.....Its been a long day..
