Hi all,
    I'm trying to figure out what speeds of Athlon XP chips are supported by
the motherboard I have.
I have a ECS L7VTA and it is now running a Athlon XP 1700+.  This didn't
give me the performance boost
I had hoped to achieve with the upgrade from the athlon Slot A 750MHz.  The
board does support a
400Mhz FSB (that's the bus speed to memory, right?).  For some reason this
mb is not listed on AMD's
web site but I've heard good things about it before I got it for this
upgrade.  How much performance
improvement would I expect from a memory upgrade - currently I have 512MB
DDR2700 - though the
FSB on the Athlon XP 1700+ is only 233mhz so it doesn't take advantage of
the 2700 capabilities.
Thanks,
Bruce
