Upgrade the motherboard?

I've got a tower PC and I like the case. I'm wondering whether I can just
change the motherboard.

The original board is MSI 6119. Pentium II at 350Mhz. Bought 1998.
Speed will only go up to 700Mhz with this board.
Dimensions: 30.0 cm(L) x 18.6 cm(W) ATX Form Factor
USB sockets at back. (I've got a special front part that allows
backward-facing USB and audio to be made available from the PC front).
Is it easy to just get another board and put it in the tower?
I'd be wanting a second-hand board I think. Speed, I don't know,
about 1.5Ghz I suppose. That's 6 times as fast as my current
board. Not sure what the difference would be, applications
run 6 times quicker I guess.
Any board suggestions? Will I need a new PSU? Presumably. TIA.
