go to www.abit.nl (http://www.abit.nl)  and see bios updates. You'll see what cpu's it supports.

It doesn't list all the CPUs it supports though.
BE6 gets capped somewhere around 800mhz PIII's in those lists, but I've heard of people using even 1ghz celerons etc.

I suggest you go visit some hardware forum and ask those geeks there.
I don't know any english sites that I could prefer though.

PIII 700 is the highest it can go.  Currently running a 700 oc'ed to about 833.  This page will show you the bios updates and what CPUs they support.
