| Not a very popular board and I doubt if anyone in here has the same board to answer your question. Looking at the specifications: "It can also support latest AMD Athlon64/Sempron, K8 CPUs, up to 800MHz FSB" "CPU: Socket 754 for AMD Athlon64(K8)/Sempron processor" Seems like 400MHz FSB processors is all you need, and no s754 CPU ever had a greater FSB then 400MHz DDR. Here is roundup off all s754 CPU's which come with a 400MHz FSB: http://products.amd.com/en-us/Deskto...=&f8=&f9=1600& |

| Thank You for your imput on this post!! So looking at that list you gave the URL too... Do you think i could get away with using the 3700+? Instead of as the PC Chips site says the 2800+.....or would I be limited by the bios?? Just asking because I really need a cheap substitute for my gaming rigg which is on a P4 -- 3.2 EE with 2 gigs mwemory and a GF 7600 AGP CARD.... yet I was told that almost any other rigg with a PCIe slot and almost any PCIe video card would be faster for gaming that what I am presently using. AGAIN thank you for your input!! |
