Yes, BUT, it won't run at 533.

The DA cpu is expecting a 133mhz FSB, and has it's multiplier set to
match.  IE 133 x 4 = 533mhz

On a 100mhz FSB, that mult results in; 100 x 4 = 400mhz

Net result, no speedup, but it may run slightly cooler.

(And yeah, 133 x 4 = 532, but it's actually 133.33333333333.... )
