Yeah Oscar, better use old PSU (older than the P4 era) and a P2 processor, just to be sure. I have both, but unfortunately they are back in Bulgaria, otherwise I would have given them to you...

If I am right back 2003 year on ebay had an ebay auction called for charity where Nvidia sold a V5-6000 A2 and also a Brazos motherboard.

Any one remember such auction?
Any one know who was the buyer? Yupe, stupid question but who know...

ps. My seller does not know nothing about motherboard. So, he cant help us.

My advice is to go for a covington or mendocino celeron:

As you dont know how old the bios is on that board...

In that case I would advice to use a Pentium II 'Klamath' as it's the first Slot 1 CPU. These Pentium II's use a 66MHz FSB and are available in the 233MHz to 300MHz range. But placing the Brazos in the time-frame of the Voodoo 3 I think any Pentium II (=Deschutes, up to 450MHz) will work.

Yeah, that's what I was about to say Oscar, use Klamath 233/266/300.
