Proliant 1850R 6/400

[Mark Fear]

I have a Proliant 1850R 6/400. I see inside the case that it can support up to 2 x PII 450 CPUs.

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to get the motherboard to support anything better, and what would the best CPU I could get in it be? Would like to hear from anyone who has pushed one further!

Cheers

Hello Mark,
You can go upto 500MHZ and here is the part no for the Motherboard & CPU:

System I/O Board without Processor - for 500MHz systems and below 333110-001

Pentium III 500MHz Processor with Heatsink 114525-001

The Kit for upgrade is as follows:

500 MHz Pentium III 512K Processor Option Kit 401268-B21

Sunil,

Many thanks for your reply.

Just to be clear, to support a PIII, are you saying that I would need to change the motherboard?

Do you know what the best processor the standard 6/400 motherboard will support is?

Cheers
