Fastest CPU on an A7V133?

[Ryukumu]

What's the fastest CPU that the A7V133 can support without tweaking the bus speed?

should be able to take xp chips, may require a bios update though. I think max multiplier is like 12.5 or something but don't quote me on that, so at a FSB or 133 that will make the clock speed 1662.5mhz or an xp2000+ (I think)

Today you can buy it bundled with a XP 2000 MhZ. That is not over anything'd . . . so you have room to maneuver.

Wait, the A7V133 CAN do the Athlon XP chips?! Kickass! The reason I was asking is 'cuz I thought it didn't support them. w00t! 😀 Thanks!

Official support for Athlon XP wasnt until PCB revision 1.05 on the A7V133, with bios 1007. However I have read of XP working on prior PCB's with bios 1007.

Yeah, I figure it'd require a BIOS update... well, so long as that works. Thanks!
