Check out PowerLeap at www.powerleap.com . There are other adapters out there
to mediate the voltage difference between that required by the CPU and that
emitted by the motherboard. Upgrading, say, from 400 to 500MHz won't mean much
at the end of the day, unless the 500MHz processor is really, really cheap, or
even free. Add more memory, and you'll get more bang for your buck with most
uses of Window$... Ben Myers

Ben is 100% correct. The 1.4 ghz works really well.

Thirded. I put the 1.4 PL-iP3/T in my GP6-400 about 2 months ago and
haven't looked back. I had to upgrade to the latest BIOS first, then
performed the surgery, all of which took about 5 minutes total. I'm very
satisfied with it.
