Actually only newer Pent-III supports 133MHz front side bus speed. If you
look carefully at the fine print on the chip it should be like 533/512/133.
This means the CPU's speed is 533MHz with 512KB L2 cache and the front side
bus is 133MHz. There is a little trick, 533/256/133 is actually faster
than 533/512/133. 533/256/133 is one of the latest P-III on which the L2
cache is smaller but it runs at 533MHz. The 533/512/133's L2 cache runs at
133MHz only.
