AFAIK the voltage regulator that supports the dual voltage that MMX needs is required on the MO BO. There are some who claim to be running MMX without the regulator, but I question whether they are actually getting MMX performance. Not all 680's have it. Mine doesn't. Without a powerleap adapter, or some such, You can only go to 200 without mmx, which is what I did. Problem: non-mmx chips are now very difficult to find and very expensive if you do. I also heard that a Winchip will work.
