as it says in a few of those posts the FSB speed, can it be different than 100 like what can run? and I know HP posted the limits on it, but as in a few of the posts on the other site, it said you could probably run up to a 2400+ XP, but i dont want to waste my money, so does anyone know exactly what the limitations are and what would be the fastest type of AMD processors that i could use and that would work on this mobo with the BIOS i have or if i could change the BIOS though it could be locked, i dont know, any suggestions or comments will be useful, so please help.
If you need any additional details, I would be more than happy to find them out for you, thank you.
