AT Motherboards are no longer in production, so it is very doubtful that you will be able to find one that will support such a fast processor. Even if you COULD find one, it would actually be MORE expensive than an ATX Motherboard. The best alternative would be to buy an ATX Motherboard, Powersupply, and Case. It will save money, and utilize the processor better with the newer chipsets that AT Motherboards simply will not have, even with BIOS updates.

Try looking for what you need at a motherboard review site. Try motherboards.org IT is a pretty good site, with lots of serach criteria and links to manufacturers.

I don't think anyone ever made an AT board for PIII's. You can however still get AT boards for Socket 7 processors, but the fastest I know of is the AMD K62/550. Check out www.pricewatch.com for availability from various resellers.

Hi Mike,

Soyo makes Baby AT motherboard that handles up to P3 500MHz with an Intel 440BX Chipset. It is model # SY-6BB. You can check it out at http://www.soyousa.com and go to products, or if you live in another country visit http://www.soyo.com

If you already have the 667 CPU I am sorry about that.

Good luck.
