I have an old motherboard running VIA's KT133 chipset doing 100 FSB on a
Duron 1.3. I'd like to put in a much faster chip, but I don't think the
KT133 can handle a 133 FSB. Has anyone gotten this to work? Sisoft
Sandra suggests it can do a 133 FSB but I don't think that's correct. It
was the KT133A that could do the 133 FSB.
Looks like the fastest chip this can handle is a 1.4mhz Athlon
thunderbird with a 200fsb(2x100fsb). This old chip retails at over one
hundred dollars! Must be in demand for this chipset.
Is the difference between a 1.3 Duron and a 1.4 Athlon pretty trivial in
terms of gaming, video encoding, and overall system performance goes?
