Athlon XP 2500+ 333mhz for A7V8X-X ???
Howdy
I have a system with a Duron 1300 installed on an A7V8X-X mobo. I'd like to upgrade it. I'm leaning towards the above-named processor, AMD part designation AXDA2500BOX. Anyone have experience with this processor on this board ? I'm interested in stability first, speed second, and won't be doing any overclocking. tia -- stan |

Thanks Matt and David for the excellent info.
Found it in boxed version for $120 delivered price, seems like a performance steal. -- stan |

Hi Steve
Another option ASUS A7N8X-E DELUXE http://usa.asus.com/products/mb/sock...d/overview.htm I have built 3 computers with this same motherboard and the AMD 2500 Barton 333 CPU Very stable, fast and ton features on motherboard. Thanks for the info. I've got the one A7V8X-X system to upgrade, but after that I'm looking for a nice low-cost board to use in systems whose parts cost can be kept to $600. The A7N8X-E looks like a nice board. And gettable for around $100 delivered from ZipZoomFly or NewEgg. Any have experiential thoughts on the nVidia chipset versus the VIA ? -- stan |

The Via chipset may not have quite the performance of the nVidia, but it is rock-solid stable. David |
