Should I upgrade my MOBO+CPU?

Will I see a big boost in performance moving from my current CPU and Mobo (in sig...) to a 1.4GHz Athlon + A7V133?

Is it worth it?
 
It all depends on what you do. Do you play games or just do office stuff? You definitely would notice a speed increase but I wouldn't get the A7V133. I believe that is the KT133 or KT133A chipset and that is kinda outdated since the KT266A just came out and offers up to 10% performance increases in certain areas.

I would say upgrade if you feel that it is slow and if you play games but I would definitely go w/ a KT266A motherboard.

i believe so! prices nowadays get so low that getting one is very affordable. i agree with agnitrate though. the kt133 is an old board. get a kt266 and throw in some sticks of ddr in there too while your at it. it will be well worth it.

p.s. i aslo have a P3 667 on a P3V4X. that board is rock solid aint it!? 🙂
