Hi,

I have a AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2000+ whose clock speed is 1.665Ghz. A
program called "Sandra" says that my motherboard will support a faster
CPU.

My mob is a MS-6382 & the manual says "support 600Mhz up to 1.5GHz
Processor"

Doesn't the existing 1.665Ghz clock speed already exceed the mobo
spec?

Even the first socket A boards would support CPU's over 2400MHz. See link

I used to have this board and I successfully installed an Athlon XP
2400+. The bios did not recognise it properly as "unknown cpu 2000
Mhz" was displayed at POST. I was unable to update the BIOS as it is
an OEM board but it worked fine.
