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:

    Knavery seems to be so much a the striking feature of its inhabitants that it may not in the end be an evil that they will become aliens to this kingdom.
    —George III (1738–1820)

    French rhetorical models are too narrow for the English tradition. Most pernicious of French imports is the notion that there is no person behind a text. Is there anything more affected, aggressive, and relentlessly concrete than a Parisan intellectual behind his/her turgid text? The Parisian is a provincial when he pretends to speak for the universe.
    Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
