Can these boards support 266Mhz FSB cpu's? Can they support Athlon XP's, or just the 200Mhz FSB Athlon's?

KT7A will support 133/266 MHz FSB CPU's. KT7 boards will not.
You could plug the CPU in and it would likely work (depending on CPU), just at 100/200 MHz instead of 133/266, resulting in lower overall speed.

According to Paul's, the 266 CPU's will work as long as they are locked. This has been born out by my experience of trying a factory unlocked 1.33 T-bird in a KT133 board. No response.
But with the information from the other thread, I'd go for the XP chip if I were going to update one of these motherboards.
