Definitely 266mhz FSB, maybe one of the new XP's if the
BIOS' to support them are out.

Before you start thinkin XP, make sure what rev the board is. There's a couple threads around on how certain revisions of the KT7A won't support the Athlon XP. But the regular 266MHz Athlons will work in your boards.

I thought I just read somewhere that the KT7's won't support the Athlon XP. You might do a little searching before shelling out the extra $$.
