I have a friend who's got an FIC AU31 mobo. The specs on the thing are:
FSB 100-166 Mhz
Bus Speeds 100 - 250MHz
So here's my question:
He has very little cash. He's running an Athlon 900 mhz now. What would be a good low cost option to upgrade for a temporary performance boost? Can you put an Athlon XP with a higher bus speed on? Or, if you can lower the bus speed, will that nullify the performance gain?
Any other suggestions welcome. He's looking to spend less than $100 if possible; I told you, short term,low cost fix.
Thanx
PLEASE NOTE: Some quantum physics theories suggest that when the consumer is not directly observing this product, it may cease to exist or will exist only in a vague and undetermined state.
