ESC K7VTA3 v5.0 Fsb speed? processor?

[firewind75]

Hello all.
I am New To the forums and I am starting my first PC build. I have everything that i need except
for a Processor and a Powersupply. I have a ESC K7VTA3 V5.0 MoBo.(kt333) I have read alot of stuff on this board but most conflict with one another about the correct FSB. I really have no idea what Processor to use . I would like to use a AMD xp-2400 or larger . (if possible) And I have seen nothing about what size Powersupply to use. Here is the Site from ESC .. http://www.ecsusa.com/products/k7vta3_5.html Remember , I am rather Computer-Stupid , So any help in this would be alot of help.

Welcome to the forums! You could probably use just about any Athlon XP that uses a 333 or 266 FSB (basically anything except the 3200 and the newer 3000s). As for the power supply, get a name-brand (Fortron, Antec, Enermax, Sparkle, etc.) 350W or more (350W runs my system without a problem). Good luck with your system!
