    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.;)
