Question

Iron

What is the most powerful processor that can be installed in socket7 instead of pentium mmx 166MHz?

Answer 1

Depending on what chipset, in some the ceiling will be IPentium 200MMX, which on VX, it seems, there were power problems, for 233MMX it was not enough ...
For K6-II and K6-III, you need to patch the BIOS, if it is physically supported ...

Answer 2

I think something like amd K6-II 550MHz or AMD K6-III 450 MHz

Answer 3

here it will depend more on the motherboard what percent it understands the maximum) look at the specification

Answer 4

Throw off a photo or model of the mother. In general, you can make K6-3E + 550 or K6-2 + 570 work. Both of them are quite rare (I only have the second one), it’s easier to find K6-2+ and overclock it (600 is easy to take).
But most likely, your motherboard can only 83 bus at best and the maximum frequency will be 83 * 6 = 500 MHz.
