Slot 1 - Pentium III B and EB Models

Pentium III B and EB Models

A special series of Pentium III for Slot 1 had an addition to its name (Pentium III EB). The "E" indicates a Coppermine core, and the "B" a 133 MHz FSB. Ironically, no consumer-oriented Intel chipset (except select few i820-based motherboards) officially supports a FSB of 133 MHz. To use this CPU, one must either use the VIA Apollo Pro 133A chipset, an Intel 800-series chipset (which was relatively expensive and often required RDRAM, limiting it to high-end workstations or servers), or the Intel 440BX outside of its specifications (which, on some motherboards, is indeed possibly stable).

Famous quotes containing the words iii and/or models:

    The Empress is Legitimist, my cousin is Republican, Morny is Orleanist, I am a socialist; the only Bonapartist is Persigny, and he is mad.
    —Napoleon Bonaparte III (1808–1873)

    The parents who wish to lead a quiet life I would say: Tell your children that they are very naughty—much naughtier than most children; point to the young people of some acquaintances as models of perfection, and impress your own children with a deep sense of their own inferiority. You carry so many more guns than they do that they cannot fight you. This is called moral influence and it will enable you to bounce them as much as you please.
    Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
