AMD Athlon XP 2400+
I have a AMD Athlon XP 2400+ with 1.99 GHz, 512 MB of RAM. The board is
KT400-8235, Bus Clock: 133 megahertz, BIOS: Phoenix Technologies, LTS 6.00 PG 3/28/2003. I am looking to upgrade this processor by a PC place and just wanted to know my options here before I call. This is what the BeLarc Advisor says I have in the computer. Thanks Mary |

You're not going to get a lot more performance out of a CPU upgrade alone. I'd either increase the clockspeed of the one you have or buy a new socket 754 MB (with PCI lock) and a socket 754 cpu of your choice. The 754 Semprons will overclock like crazy if you want to stay cheap. Don't even consider a socket A Sempron CPU for your board. -- Abit KT7-Raid (KT133) Tbred B core CPU @2400MHz (24x100FSB) http://mysite.verizon.net/res0exft/cpu.htm |
