Northwood "b" works with ABit Th7-II?

[Jgtdragon]

Will the Northwood B chip work with the Abit TH7-II? I see in the bios of the Th7-II does have 133 fsb cpu selection, just curious.

I sure hope so................had a 2.4b in my TH7II-R for about a week now running 533!................

ToBeMe,
Hmmm... I didn't know the Northwood "B" came out already. Is your the 2.4 "a" overclock to 533?

The Northwood B is indeed out, and you can purchase the 2.4B at Newegg for $580

Interesting... my plan might be change now if my ABit Th7-II supports the Northwoody B. Do I need special rdram for it or my PC 800 Samsung will do? I got some 16 device Samsung PC800 rdram coming by end of this week.

Na...............Get some PC1066! The 16 Device PC800 should work fine too though!
