Hi Rick,

They do have BIOs updates to allow for higher CPU clock rates.  My BE6-II is
able to accept a 1 Ghz processor now
with a bios upgrade.

Subject: [PCBUILD] 440 BX r.2


Hello all,

I have an ABIT 440BX R.2. According to the manual it can only support up to
a 500 mhz chip. Can the bios be upgraded to accept faster chips??? If so
where can I get them??(I tried ABIT site but it seems a underwater cable has
been cut and parts of their site is not available)

TIA
Rick Torres
