A7M-266D Dual
 
Not looked at the AMD CPU options on this board for a while now.

Not really got a clue about the differences either.
Can anyoone advise me on which CPU's this board will actually support.

Ta.

Just select SocketA and the board model.

I've used two of those boards. The first one I did
with a pair of Durons and later upgraded to XP 1800+'s.
The second one I did with a pair of 1600+'s. Both were
recently upgraded to MP2200+'s. I've also done the
same thing with a couple of Tyan boards.

Looks good then.
I may well go for 2 x 2400 XP's.

Before you do, you need to be aware that once upon a time
the XP's didn't have anything stopping you from using them
in pairs, but now they do. The transition point was the
XP1900+ - lower speeds are not locked, higher speeds are,
and those that are right on the 1900+ line might or might
not be.

There are articles out there that tell how you can unlock
newer XP's so that you can use them in pairs. The first
place I would look would be 2cpu.com - and as always tools
like Google are helpful.
