Does anyone know if altering the fsb jumper on my slotket to 133mhz will allow me to run my PIII700 flipchip at 933 even though my board's max fsb is only 112mhz.
I sort of thought that the slotket might be able to alter the fsb beyond the mobos capability in the same way that it alters the voltage down from the mobo's min of >2 to 1.65 for the new cpu.
Any help would be appreaciated as although im pleased at being able to run a 700 in such an old board, i want to try to get higher as i belive the PIII700 SL3XX will go 1Ghz+
Cheers.

No- afraid not. The slotket jumper tells the motherboard what the default FSB should be for the chip and nothing else. The clock generator on the MB must generate the proper frequencies for the MB to run- yours is limited to 112 judging by your comment.
