HI,

I have been running an ABIT KG7 MOBO with 256(unregistered ddr) and a 1700xp+ Amd Athlon for a while now but would like to upgrade the processor.

Does anyone know any compatibility problems with the Abit and say a 2000xp+ Athlon or a 2100xp+?

Will i need to upgrade my bios?

The 'soft menu' abit bios only lists a amd 1900 xp +.Should i select 'user define' and adjust the multipliers appropriatly?

bugmaster...

Hi there,

Check out: http://www.abit.com.tw/abitweb....sors%3F

The rest of the FAQ's can be found here: http://www.abit.com.tw/abitweb....T_TIMES

Hope this helps.  I'm not familiar with ABIT mother boards so your best bet would be to contact ABIT directly or look through the FAQ's.

Hi,

Why on earth do you want this kind of upgrade?
The performance increase does seem very small to me.

Better spend your money something else!

Or am I mistaking?
