Fastest AMD for Via KT266A

a lot of older kt266 & kt333 boards had problems using processors that used
multipliers higher than 12.5 so the xp2000+ is the highest one you can
really be sure will work.

I am running a Duron in a Syntax mobo with a Via KT266A chipset.

I want to upgrade to an Athlon but the vendor site has no info on
the fastest cpu I can run.

Am I limited to Palomino's?

I can't afford to upgrade my PSU. My PSU can deliver the
following. Is this enough power for a low-end Athlon? Which speed
cpu would be the best?

+12V 13A
+5V 27A
+3.3V 20A
Max for +5v and +3.3V combined is 175W.

There's not a problem with the boards, just the people that tried to use
them not knowing what they were doing. There's many ways around that
problem. See link below.
