Hi, sorry if this has been asked a million times but what's the fastest CPU I can get in my mobo? I'm guessing it will be the 2400 if the board cannot go higher than 266fsb, but is there a BIOS update to allow it to go higher?

I currently have a XP2000, would it be worth getting the 2400? It's only cheap and I would probably overclock it a bit too. Does the 2400 run cooler than the 2000 or did I read something wrong?

Cheers.

Hey forget that man get your self a 2100 and have some fun this board rocks for a KT333 I can get higher and I have done but I don't wish that on my AGP/PCI bus for extended periods so I run @ 2.4GHz :)
 
What is your board revision? If you don't know were to look it is usually at the back of the MoBo so you will have to take it out of the case to find out.

I was asking scg not you as he is the thread starter. There was no divider issue with the KX7333|R as you mentioned.
