[newbie] Bus speed: Dumbdumbdumb question

1999-06-13 Thread Steve Winston


I have a new motherboard. It asks do I want to set it for "host bus
speeds" ranging from 60mhz to 100 mhz. 
I am going to install a Pentium 233 MMX chip now. In two weeks, I will
replace that with an AMD 400 mhz cpu. 
Now, do I set the bus speed at 60 or 66 mhz for the 233? And don't I
set it at 100 mhz for the 400mhz cpu? 
I checked Intel's web site for the pentium but it offered no advice. 
thanks much, Steve Winston
