Why wouldn't it ? The a7n8x supports PC2100 memory & the 133FSB of your CPU. If you don't try to run that CPU without a fan, you won't have any problems.

ok, the thing that had me wondering is because on the specs it says
"
Processor
Socket A for AMD® Athlon™ XP/ Athlon™ / Duron™ 600MHz ~ 3000+
Thoroughbred/Barton core CPU ready
"

but doesnt say anything about Palomino core cpu. so i just wanted to make sure that that motherboard would support my amd xp 2000+ Palomino core cpu.

thanks,

Well speeds from 600mhz to 3000+ means it would even support a thunderbird, provided you would be willing to use such a CPU on that board.

well i would use a thunderbird on it if i hadnt of fried my thunderbird cpu lol :$

anyway, thanks for your help!
