Exactly what is the prerequisite on a motherboard for getting a mobile Barton to work on a motherboard… I read a 100+ posts on one working good with my NF7-S before I bought one, but what exactly is it...
I have a friend on the cheap side that wants to get some more life out of his 512MB of PC133 ram, so I am hunting for a quality AMD board ~$50 that has slots for both 168 and 184 pin ram… but I do not want to get him a locked athlon cpu… down the road when he gets a new motherboard and new ram, I would like to be able to take the cpu he gets now and bump the fsp up to 200… and that sounds like a mobile barton to me…
but what do I need to look for in a motherboard...
