I believe that you are maxed out. You can't add a 333 bus or 400 bus cpu to that board, and you can't even OC it without looking for a new non-official bios.


ABIT IS7, P4 2.6C, 1GB Corsair XMS 4000 Pro Series, Radeon 9800 Pro, Santa Cruz, TruePower 430watt

Actually the board isn't THAT crappy, consider the competition (Asus A7V266 for example) and it's actually superior to most high end boards of it's day!

If you find a BIOS that has multiplier adjustments, you could try a mobile barton, but you'd also have to confirm the new BIOS supports Bartons. A mobile Barton (such as the XP-M 2500+) would allow you to set the multiplier manually and get your speed up.

what are you trying to accomplish with an upgrade ??
the XP2400 is not that bad , most games & apps should do fine , if its games may think video card instead

was just thinking of upgrading it a bit
i have a nvidia geforce 4 440mx (64mb ram) graphics card

Yeah, if this upgrade is for games you should rather be looking at a gfx card upgrade. Even a 9600 pro or older Ti4200 w/b a significant improvement.
