Will an Asus A7V Support 266 Mhz FSB?

Will an Asus A7V Support 266 Mhz FSB? More or less a 1.33 ghz AMD Processor w/ 266 Mhz FSB

Damn, also wanted to ask:

If I'm o/c'ing a Athlon 900, what's a good voltage that I should set the motherboard at and it is wiser to use the physical jumpers than the jumperfree system when overclocking this?

Thanks.

Not if it isn't the A7V133 motherboard. The most I ever got my A7V board to was 110FSB, then it started crappin out.

It can obviously handle PC-133 memory though.

Same here I can only get 110 fsb max out of my A7V. I would reccomend an Iwill KK266 or an Asus A7V133 for a 266 bus chip.

One would think that if you unlocked the multiplier and lowered it, and set your FSB (via jumper) to 100, that it would work.... but you'd be much more limited in OC potential (whatever you can achieve via higher multipliers).

The ASUS A7V is based around the VIA 8363 which supports an offical fsb of 100MHz (200 dual pump) whereas. As such it can only run chips of a 100Mhz fsb pedigree. You could theoretically unlock and change multipliers, however what I feel you are asking is if your board will do 133Mhz.

The ASUSA7V133 has the VIA 8363a northbridge which officially supports 133Mhz fsb. This northbridge also overclocks on fsb very well.

Found a spec sheet listing all supporting motherboards...Thanks for replying anyways guys.

Ok my board is the A7V133, which runs the VIA133 chipset, so would this motherboard (clearing up any misinterpretations) run a 1.33 Ghz 266 FSB Athlon processor?

The A7V133 has the Via KT133a Chipset vs the A7V which has the Via KT133 Chipset. Just replying to clarify things, there is a world of difference between the 2 chipsets.
