I was just checking on whether or not I would be able to use my Abit BX6 with a newer p3, such as the 1 Ghz version. I currently have a p3 550 E with the slocket kit. Thanks for the help guys, also what would be the reccommended heatsink/fan combo for the p3 1ghz cpu.

When you do flash the BIOS, be sure to read all of the documentation. You may have to disable a few functions in BIOS before you flash it. I'm just giving you a heads up. Many of my friends just D/led the files and flashed it, and wondered why his PC wont boot. - Joeteck

yup i think someone else on the board has a bx6 with the 1000e in it. i have a bx6 2 with a 1000e. the bx62 is the same board with a few extra features. just make sure you have the latest bios and turn speed error hold off.
when your computer initially boots witha 1000e it will say pentium 3 666. kind of evil if you ask me. just set the fsb to 100 and turn off speed error hold and your set to go.
