Title: Upgrade advice Plz
Post by: aztec on February 24, 2005, 04:28:53 PM

I'm running a K7s5a Mobo w/a 1.3 Athlon cpu. From everything I see I can take that up to a 2600. I'm not sure though so would appreciate a confirmation of this.

I'm also looking to replace my GeForce 2 Ultra with a GeForce 5700LE. Reason is price and seems to be the fastest card I can get that will run 4x AGP.  

Any advice at all would be greatly appreciated, Thx, aztec

here is a good link , there are 3 versions to that board , but they all look to support the same 266 fsb cpu's.   the highest you can go is the 3000+ moblie amd xp .   ive seen 2600's and 2800's with a 266 fsb , so those should work fine  .   Hope this helps <> 38
