I want to replace the motherboard on, I'm sick of fighting the onboard audio/video and have no open pci slots. What else do I need to know about this processor before buying a motherboard?

Try compgeeks.com - they often have older and used parts for sale.... They have an Epox socket 370 MB on sale new right now.... http://www.compgeeks.com/details.asp...P-3VHA&cat=MBB Good Luck! ECM |

If you're going to replace the motherboard then replace the CPU also. Rather than going through the hassle of trying to find a motherboard for an obsolete processor for a few dollars more you can get a modern system. If you look on pricewatch you'll find AthlonXP 2600 motherboard combos for $100. |

If you look on pricewatch you'll find AthlonXP 2600 motherboard combos for $100. I just bought the processor a few months ago to replace a celeron 400. I've decided to go ahead and upgrade to a 1.7 or 2.4 ghz celeron from newegg.com. With the ram and the board I'll spend $250. -- www.newromesucks.com www.hamsterforpresident.com |
