Can I run a AMD Athlon 2800XP??? The MSI site only says 'to Athlon(tm) XP
2700+ processor or higher'.

Seems a little vague..

Depends on what the FSB of your CPU is, the K7N2G is not specced to run
at 200 MHz, only 166. But a whole lot of people are running their K7N2s
at 200 FSB comfortably.
The Delta version was released to handle CPUs with 200 FSB, if you have
a Delta then no worries.
