Computer Doctor: The newest and highest performance chipset is the 440BX. It is the first and currently only chipset to support a processor bus (and therefore motherboard) speed of 100MHz. This is required to support the new 350, 400 and 450 MHz Pentium II processors. It can also run at the slower 66MHz bus speed, and at that speed will support any Pentium II from the 233 to the 333 MHz.
