BE6-II is a good motherboard for overclocking.

The first Iwill Slocket only supported Celerons not Celeron 2's. So yes froggystyle is using an Iwill Slocket II which smashes past 1.95V
http://www.iwillusa.com/products/spe...0II&SupportID=

1.95V should be more than sufficient to get a decent overclock out of that cpu.

Abit's BE6-II supports fsb speeds of 66Mhz, 75, 83, and then 84 through 200Mhz in 1MHz jumps. And the Celeron 733 uses a multiplier of 11. froggystyle has already changed the fsb to 75Mhz (11x75Mhz=825Mhz}. So froggystyle's next fsb option is 83Mhz. Which would be 913Mhz {83Mhzx11=913Mhz}. That cpu should be able to do that. Sometimes cpu's don't overclock well. It happens.

Asus CUSL2 is a great motherboard.

Abit's SH6 just came out which is why there aren't many reviews on it. Its basically the slot one version of the SA6R but without the Ultra100 Highpoint IDE controller. The SA6R has gotten great reviews.

So either the CUSL2 or SH6 motherboards would be good to get that will have you croaking with joy froggystyle.

Even though the Highpoint controllers have become less problematic over the past few months I also prefer to stay away from them and use Promise controllers.
