Did a quick search at ebay and looks like theyre still selling VRMs for <$20 (search for "pentium pro vrm")... -*- some more info on this machine you might find useful: MEMORY - The motherboards takes EDO DIMM UNBUFFERED (fairly hard to find) FORM FACTOR - LPX,IBM Proprietary (you cant transfer to another case). Some (but not all) really old Aptiva minitowers can take it though--but with the correct riser card (both hard to find). CPU - it can take 2 PPro overdrives (to 333mhz)--(i wouldnt recommend this though due to the still high cost of PPro OD's).
