PowerLeap PL-iP3/T adaptor + Celeron 1.2G
Overclocker 29 Dec 2001

Intel users will never forget about how rock stable their BX chipsets Slot 1 boards are. The time has come that everyone is moving to the Pentium 4. So, have you ever wonder if it is time to upgrade your PC to the Gig hertz level by introducing a Tualatin or Celeron onto your mainboard? Well, the problem is that it's not as simple as that because the new CPU will not function with your existing Slot 1 adaptor. Slot 1 users you are in luck as this adaptor allows you to use Tualatin on your BX board. Users of Dual Pentium III Slot 1 boards, you will also be delighted to as you can now upgrade your dual Pentium-S without changing your current Dual Slot 1 board. (*not all boards are compatible).

The PowerLeap™ PL-iP3/T™ is a new and unique upgrade solution for Slot-1 Pentium-II and Pentium-III systems. The PL-iP3/T™ uses PowerLeap's patented IPS™ technology to adapt existing Slot 1 motherboards and systems to the voltage and GTL signal requirements of the new generation of Intel's "Tualatin" Pentium III and Celeron-II (FC-PGA2) processors.  With the PL-iP3/T™, a typical* P-III system can reach speeds up to 1.26 GHz with the latest Pentium III-S CPUs (133 MHz FSB required), and up to 1.2 GHz when used with the latest Celeron-II "Tualatin" CPUs (100 MHz FSB required for 1.2 GHz core speed).
