Stanislav, I refer you to this message about your mobo from someone who had
a similar one and checked it out:

Your board will support P-III CPUs, and yes I saw this table in the FAQ's on
the soyo site. I also saw the tables for the the coppermine CPU and your
board is not listed there. As I said before, the only SY-6BA model that
supports Coppermine is the SY-6BA+100. The CPU you ordered, if it is a
coppermine is the Intel Pentium III 700E FC-PGA, and your board does not
support FC-PGA processors, and since this board has been discontinued, there
is probably a very slim chance that you will find a bios upgrade to get the
board to accept a coppermine. I would avoid doing the upgrade and instead of
getting the coppermine, change your order to a regular P-III 700.
Hi Joel M. Blackman! At 08:53 PM 4/1/01 -0700 you wrote:

The last your sentence is my question.
I know nothing about Vcore of my motherboard in VID mode.
