Need Help

[estew33]

Hello,
I have a Gigabyte GA-7vrxp. I thought this board was a 333 fsb board. I looked on Gigabyte's site, it's says I can use upto a xp2600+w/266 fsb. The fsb333 is N/A which means does not support.
I'm wondering if I can use a 2500+ barton. Or do you think it may be better to just buy anotherboard to go along with the barton.
Thanking all who reply in advance for their help
Ed

It might be cheaper to get a 2400/266 xp than change boards. You can also check newegg's refurb boards. Their nforce2 boards start at about $49 shipped, but you may have trouble locating a backplate to match the board. Most don't come with them.
