Palomino and KT133A

[nsxdemon]

Does anyone know if the Palomino (Athlon 4) procs will be compatible with current KT133A boards? Like buy an A7V133 and throw in Palomino later...I've got a feeling they will be, but a BIOS update will be necessary.

Any ideas/sources would be very much appreciated.

Palomino's will work on those boards. AMD specifies some things on what the boards require, but almost all KT133A mobo's meet these. It's best if the board has a 3 phase power supply. Personally, I'd go with a DDR setup, like an Asus A7M266, or if you like overclocking, go with an Epox EP-8K7A or a Gigabyte GA-7DXR. DDR memory from crucial is the same price as SDR, so I'd go with that if I were you.
