This MB is Abit BX6, I am not sure its verion but I bought it when the Celeron 266 just came out, anyone know what kind of today CPU I can plug in, something like P3 or Celeron2 with a sloket?
Thanks in advance!

with an up-to-date BIOS
any Intel Socket CPU (Celeron1/2, P2, P3)
the PPGA Celerons
And any Coppermine CPU (Celeron 2, P3)
You just do not have support for the NEWEST P3/celeron CPU's...
they are often refered to as Coppermine-T's
they also look diffent as the CPU DIE is not showing by covered by a metal plate
 
The original BX6 came out before the BH6 then the BX6 II came out. That puts it back to the first PII's. When you look up your bios keep that gap in mind. Latest bios is BX6QS.EXE. Tried to give you a link but it's not working. www.abit.com.tw. Chose download and look for BX6 in the list.
