edit: u can actually out in a 2.8ghz p4 with 533fsb or a 2.8ghz celerom with 400fsb

but with the p4 u need bios upfate 1007 at least 1011.002 for the celeron

sry peat moss i was stuck llokin at your aviatar wondering if she would jump higher....

But, If you are going to get a new Mobo, and everything, why not get a AMD based system?? cheaper, so you could get even more for the buck... get soime ram to mach and you would be set for some time..

Ya I'v had a few amd systems only thing that turns me off about them is their silly rating system. They should make it easier . my first was a k6-2 300mh still trying to figure that out :lol:
