I have a GA-e7205 MB with a P4 2.4Ghz 533FSB, 2gigs pc3000, GA-Maya II 9700 Pro (AGP), 2x10K RPM Sata Raptors and a MOTU 2408 MK III AD/DA. I want to upgrade to a P4 3.06 (finally!) but, finding it for a reasonable price is another topic all together.
If any one can explain the following, I would really appreciate it! What are the ramifications of dropping a P4 3.06Ghz 800Mhhz FSB in a motherboard that supposedly only supports 533 MHZ FSB?
In overclocking, the board is well reknown for its 667MHZ FSB capability, though I've rarely done it... My confusion is in how it will hurt by dropping an 800Mhz / 478pin into a 533Mhz 478 pin socket? Is this really detrimental and if so, how and why?
I've been thinking about this for a while now, so...here I am. Please help!
Thanks!
Tony

), because cpu will probably require newer chipsets to even work properly, even at 533fsb
