Will PIII (1.4 Ghz) work on Asus TUV4X ???

Hi,

It will if...
-> You set the back-to-back transaction in the bios to disabled.
=> Otherwise it won't boot.

Reg,

Hello Everyone,

I own an Asus TUV4X motherboard. I'm running Pentium III 700 Mhz and would
like to buy a PIII (1.4 Ghz) with 512 Kb L1 cache. I went to the Asus
website and it says that PIII 1.4 is not supported. The fastest possible is
the PIII 1.2 Ghz (256 kb cache).

I searched Google Groups and found some posts where people say they're
running 1.4Ghz with the TUV4X. However, I don't know if they have done
something special in order to make it work. Is anyone here running TUV4X
with PIII 1.4 Ghz? Please post your comments.

Thanks in advance,
Jose

I would take this as true..

I would wonder if anyone is reporting 1.4G, if they mean that they
are overclocking a processor to 1.4G.

I'd say it's misleading. It implies some motherboards can run 256K
Tualatins but not 512K Tualatins, and vice versa.

A Tualatin is a Tualatin is a Tualatin - if your board can run one, it
can run them all. Perhaps what they are trying to convey is the fact
that 256K Tualatins (both Celeron and PIII) are not dual-processor
capable - only the 512K PIII-S versions support SMP.

I would wonder if anyone is reporting 1.4G, if they mean that they
are overclocking a processor to 1.4G.

Dual 1.4Ghz PIII-S on a P2B-DS here - and I don't see my board on the
supported list I'm running them at stock speed because my current
video card can't handle more than an 89Mhz AGP bus, but the processors
will do 1575Mhz (150Mhz FSB) no problem.
