Greetings,
     This has probably been on this list before, but I have a BH6 mobo
currently using a Celeron 400.  The bus speed of the board will go to 133
MHz and I've heard that the BH6 can run the new Coppermine P3's at that bus
speed.  I have also heard that the pitfall of that is the AGP bus running
too fast for the video adapter to handle.  My video adapter is a Guillemot
Prophet GeForce (SDR) which (I have heard) is cool with the higher AGP
speed.  What has been the experience of those of you who have done this
with a BH6 or other i440BX mobo?  Is it a sweet deal, or is it more trouble
than it's worth?  I need to know before I sink money into a 133MHz P3
without a new mobo.

TIA,
Chris
