Is this machine too new for this sub? Recently acquired the holy grail of Slot A: Athlon 1GHz. Very proud of this machine. I have wanted one for years.

Wow, I remember those. You'll need to see if you can find a Gold Finger Device so you can overclock it. They were little daughter boards with DIP switches that let you set the multiplier.

I actually have one. I tried it on my 900MHz processor and could only reach 950MHz. I don't want to crack open the 1GHz cpu ๐Ÿ˜€
