fastest CPU for my motherboard

[newgamer]

I have the Gigabytes GA-7VRX mainboard which have the CPUclock of only 100Hz/133Hz. I currently have the AMD 2100+ Xp CPU palomino. I'm thinking about upgrading the CPU, which CPU is the fastest for this mainboard can support? help me if anyone know anything.

In the few minutes I had to search around for your mobo, I couldn't find any exact cpu limits. I flew through gigabyte's site and newegg and this is all I could find:

Socket A for AMD Athlon™/AMD Athlon™ XP/Duron™ processors

It's all good ^_^

ok, so my motherboard support the 2700+ Xp CPU, Is it worth the upgrade from 2100+ Xp palomino to 2700+. The 2700+ cost only $140 anyway.

I'd say go for it. Or save 40 bucks and get an Athlon 2600+ and overlock it a little bit

It's all good ^_^

I heard the 2600+ or 2700+ need a CPUclock of 166Hz which my mother does not have.I'm not sure if it works.

Good call, I'd just do some insane research and find which one is the best for the $$$

2700 sounds good though

It's all good ^_^<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by namek0 on 06/06/03 11:17 AM.</EM></FONT></P>
