Should I trade mobo's?

I have an MSI K7N2G-L which supports a FSB of 333.....my mom has a computer I built that has an MSI K7N2 Delta-L that supports a FSB of 400. She is running a 1700+ and I'm running a 2500+. Was thinking about trading so I can run at 400FSB. What I don't get though, is my mobo supports up to 333FSB but in the BIOS has a setting to let me push it to 400FSB. I have PC3200, but it's unstable when I run 400FSB. So what do you guys think? Trade or no?

Why not? If your mom isnt running intensive apps then I dont see why the power user shouldnt have the faster system! Especially when it is an overclocking board with a 400 FSB

I will be getting my Delta-l on Thursday and also have 512 pc2700.
hopefully my 2400 is unlocked (in a different maching) that I will be putting in there.
what fsb and clock are you running at with that 2000?

Try to push your system to 400 FSB first and see if you don't even need to swap, because if you can ,you won't have to tear them apart
I would at least push what you have first and see if it is stable or not. and just how far you can get,

you will need to wire trick the xp 2400 as its default multipliers over 13 at 15 in order to get lower ones up to 12.5
