David,
    I just finished putting together a system this weekend for use in my
home. It's an Abit BH6, Celeron 300A, a double Celeron fan/hsk, and128mb
PC100 ram. I can't tell you if it's Malay or what (I already closed up
the case), but I can tell you I bought all 4 of these components from
Cantek, and they assembled them, setup and tested them to work at
450mhz. They sent me a signed paper saying it was certified to run at
this speed. And it works great!!! No heat problems, no instability. I
left all motherboard settings as they shipped it, with voltage set at
2.2v.
    This is the second time I've bought mobo/cpu/memory combos from
Cantek and they're service is excellent. I recommend them. The mobo was
$117, C300A $75, fan/hsk $12 and PC100-128mb $177. Plus $10 for
shipping...took less than a week to arrive. If you want to order one,
you'd better hurry, I ordered mine a month ago and I've heard the C300As
are getting hard to find.
Check them out at www.cantek.com
Good luck, and feel free to email me if you have any questions.
