It uses Socket 8.

Yes, and you can get a special PII 333 overdrive for it.

Shut up wusy, you keep giving the wrong answer! Overdrives come with intgrated coolers!

is it just me or is this forum turning into a pissing contest. Sjees .. anyway it is the socket 8 and yes the petium ro uses 5v and now there is no extra cooling needed just a normal cooler will do.
This due to the relatively low clockspeed of the pentium pro.

He's right, most PPro processors came with just a heatsink! Since you responded to my comment on the Overdrive, I responded accordingly. My point here is that if you can't offer any help, don't bother responding, your just wasting our time.
