I have an M2 motherboard model number TI5vg+ with a Cyrix 333-2 chip. I want to upgrade the CPU to something faster. How do I know what will work?

The Ti5vg+ supports bus speeds of 60, 66, 75, 83 and 100 MHz. It supports Intel Pentium/MMX, AMD K5/K6/K6-2/K6 III, Cyrix 6x86/6x86MX/MII...so the highest you can do is a 550Mhz K6-2 assuming the multiplier goes to 5.5 (I did not bother to look at the manual)
