Which is the highest processor this m/b supports.Currently i m using a p4 1.7 ghz.It has sis 650 chipset + FSb (100-160 mhz)in one mhz step.
thanx

The ASUS site says 2.2GHz and beyond, yet looking at BIOS updates I didn't notice any updates for faster chips, so safely I'd say 2.2G.

According to the <A HREF="http://www.asus.com.tw/mb/socket478/p4s133-vm/jumper.htm" target="_new">Jumper Page</A> it can support a 133MHz FSB for the CPU. Now, that means it can support ALL Socket 478 CPU's. The fastest available right now is the Pentium 4 2.8GHz. At 2.8GHz, it should be able to compete with the 1533MHz Athlon XP 1800+ quite nicely. You see, SDRAM handicaps the P4 by about 30% in performance for the slower processors, and the faster the CPU, the bigger the handicap, I'm guessing 40% for the 2800+. So by getting a $600 processor, you'll finally be able to keep up with a $200 mobo/CPU/DDR combo!

Er, by first slot do you mean the one below AGP? You really shouldn't use that slot on any board.

Read the signature of the week, I'd feel sorry for people who fell into the P4/SDRAM scam, but...

[omeryounos]

yes 1st means the one beside the agp

 

[Crashman]

That one normally shares an IRQ with the AGP slot, which can cause configuration problems.

[omeryounos]

how it can be resolved.plz help.

Try moving all your cards to different slots and leaving PCI 1 open.

i ve to use all pci slots. Moving cards around donot help.

Hmm, that's why a hate boards that don't have all 6 PCI slots. Anyway, did you try turning PNP OS to NO in BOIS? That turns ON the BIOS configuration for PNP cards.
