I've been thinking about this off and on for a while now, but would I
be beter putting one of these (XP-M 2500+)
http://www.cpucitystore.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=392

or one of these (XP 2400+)

http://www.theredhotgroup.com/product_info.php?products_id=1684

Im my old but still reliable Abit Kt7A (1.3) to replace my Athlon
1400?

What would each one require to get it working? I believe the 2400+
even if locked would work without changing much (if only defaulting to
20x100)- would the XP-M?

There's several that use mobiles in the KT7A, and IIRC the most you might
have to do is set the max multiplier, and I'm not sure if even that's
required. Most of these will run at 2400MHz and higher.

Thanks Wes,

So would I be correct in saying I'll need to do the wire mod to get
the higher multipliers, or can I just select 9x to map it to 17x in
the BIOS?<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

kt7a and xp cpu - Is it still the case that KT7A's will take all XP CPU's? I am looking to AMD Athlon XP2800+ 2.083GHz 333MHz, 512KB Barton in my KT7A. Is there a problem with running it on a 266MHz bus? Will I get full speed (or more) out of it? TIA for the advice.
