OK. I found the info on your motherboard.
Here is the link::

You CAN over clock it.
USe the chart on that site that says:CPU SPEED SELECTION (CX 6X86MX)

Looks like the last configuration would be your fastest-200mhz.
Try it out, see if it works

ok can you tell me how to overclock it i dont no how to do this i dont uderstand the charts thanks

Read the cpu speed selection charts. Do you know what a jumper is? The JPs represent jumpers.

You probably won't have a ton of luck with a Cyrix processor. They were kinda hot to start with.

200mhz CPU on the 75 mhz bus would be fastest, if you can get it to work.
