600m CPU upgrade

Question

I purchased my 600m with a 1300Mhz Pentium M. I have since upgraded to a 1.6 Banias, however, i am interested in going further, perhaps to 2.0, or 2.13 since prices are falling. Will my motherboard support the new processor? General Information : Manufacturer : Dell Computer Corporation Product : 03U652 Version : Unspecified Serial Number : .JSQCP21.CN4864333I2351. CPU-Z says: Mainboard Upgradebility : Socket/Slot : Microprocessor Upgrade interface : Unspecified Supported Speed : 1700 MHz (or more) Supported Voltage : 3.3V Its really the or more part that gets me. When i upgraded to 1GB of ram, i bought PC3200, but im still clocked at 2700 (since my mobo wont support the faster speeds) so how far can i take the processor?

Only the 400 MHz bus units will work - not the 533s.

So, i shouldn't have any issues (using latest bios) upgrading to a 2Ghz Pentium M 755 with 400Mhz FSB? Further the bios will auto recognize and configure... no jumpers or manual calculation necessary?

Should work fine as long as you have the latest BIOS.
