Re: [cobalt-users] Possible to upgrade CPU on RAQ3?

[Mark Engelhardt <marke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok,

This is interesting to me,

My raq3i has a 300 mhz chip in it, but the cpu maze is confusing to me...

what am I looking as a replacement that would work?

any chip that is "socket 7" ?

does the speed just change when the new chip goes in?

Will the http://www.pricewatch.com/1/3/2202-1.htm   AMD K6-2 550 3DNow chip
work? It is only 60.00 bucks :)

is that the fastest one I can put in?

Do I have to worry about the 66mhz vs 100mhz bus speed?

Thanks
