AMD Athlon 64 Upgrade Question

No, your (Abit KR7a133R) mobo is way too old for this processor, and you'd need DDR2 memory too.

MoBo is listed below..

I now have a 1.6 AMD Athlon 64

I think the Bois will let me over clock to that

Thanks Much..

You don't have an Athlon 64. You have an Athlon XP.
 
Yup yup XP 🙁

I was just reading
Support AMD Athlon XP CPU, 0.18 micron process Palomino up to 2100+ and 0.13 micron process Thoroughbred up to 2000+.

That what last Bios says

Would be nice to spring the $35 for a new processor but the $200+ I paid for the 1400 XP 🙂

Thanks Much Ya'll

You paid $200 for an Athlon XP? I paid $140 at a computer show for a retail XP 1800+ CPU, and a KT4V-L mobo, both new products at the time.
 
Larry Iam not sure but I think it was around that..

I sure remember paying $300 for 60 gig HDD though 🙂
Then I may have been a 30 gig, prices are sure much better now that 5+ years ago 🙂
