Can someone tell me if I can run an intel 800/133 coppermine at 100 bus speed. I don't want to run it at 133. I want a compete stable system so I am going to stick with 100 bus speed. However the 800 coppermine that I can buy locally is a 800/133 cpu. Can I run this at 100 bus speed or do I have to order an 800/100. If someone knows for sure please respond.

You need to get the 800/100 if you are using a BX motherboard. The 800/133 will only run at 600MHz on a 100MHz frontside bus.
