2949.0. "Upgrade FX CPU from 166 to 200?" by ZPOVC::MONTYWONG () Tue Mar 11 1997 23:45

    In www.pc.digital.com, the Venturis FX now can support 200MHz CPU. Can
    a 5166 Venturis FX be upgraded to 200MHz simply by CPU upgrade. Does
    the voltage regulator need to be replaced?
    
    Tks.

    It's the same Vre.  Keep in mind you gain a whopping 5% performance
    at best.... i.e hopefully it's not DIGITAL's money paying for this.
