ok. I have a Abit AN7 motherboard.
AN7
And i have a athlon Xp 2600
The Specs
Model: AMD Athlon XP 2600+
Core: Barton
Operating Frequency: 1.9GHz
FSB: 333MHz
Cache: L1/64K+64K; L2/512K
Wattage: 55W
Voltage: 1.5V
Process: 0.13Micron
Socket: Socket A
This is My cooler SILENT Volcano 9
Ok my motherboard is capable of having a FSB of 400
But my current CPU only uses 266
Now my question is how much of a diffrence would i notice if i got one of these. (Gameing, Encoding, Compiling, Multitasking)
What my mobo can take
AMD Athlon XP 3200+
AMD Athlon XP 3000+ "Barton"
Aparently i can support this one too of course not the 3100 though.. hehe
AMD Sempron 3000+ 2.0GHz W/ FSB 333
If its worth noeting my ram is. (1 gig 2 sticks.. i need to see if im running these in dual channel.. I dont know if i am.)
Corsair XMS Extreme Memory Speed Series PC 2700
now with my Ram running at DDR333(PC2700) is this gona make a diffrence if i go with a 400 FSB cpu?
ok. Im just itching to upgrade small but in 3-4 months i will problay building a new system (64 bit if still tempting) and this one will be going to fileserver/second gaming machine.
I just want people opinions. Thanks again.
Rest of specs.
9700 pro
7200 RMP drive hehe
