P3 1Ghz 100FSB on Abit BE6 II

[Dredd 0]

Anyone tried or are considering using a P3 1Ghz with the 100 FSB SECCII on Abit's BE6II? I need to upgrade my P3 500 but I want it to be worth while. Any feedback with be very appreciated!

I upgraded from 500 to 800 mhz P!!! with a 100mhz front side bus and the upgrade increased the speed dramatically, I did this on an ABit bx6r2 board, which I think will only accept up to a 900mhz FSB chip, and that is all manual CPU tweaking, cause the board does not recognize anything over 700mhz, so I would check out abit's site and get the newest BIOS and see what processor that accepts, if not go to the abit newsgroups and ask around their to others who have your board.
