ASUS 7n266-C

[jschraub]

I have the ASUS7n266-C motherboard with the Athlon 2000 XP processor. Would it be possible for me to put the Athlon 2400XP processor in and have it work?

Both XP 2000 and 2400 have an FSB of 133MHz, so I don't see why not.

i think he means "333" FSB

i think he means "333" fsb

. 1. No such thing as 333fsb
2. He meant 133mhz

um did a search for 333 FSB......

It's actually 166MHz x 2 = 333MHz effective.

So, the correct FSB for the Athlon XP 2000 and 2400 is 133MHz (x 2 = 266MHz effective).

yes

ok im not one to argue with Praetor, partially becuase hes always right , but your telling me that if i have a computer operating with a FSB of 333 Mhz that its not really running at that rate???

uh...seems like its already answered. A 333 BUS is a 166FSB with 2 transmissions per clock

What you'll find on NewEgg is for all intents and purposes, advertisements. Marketers know people go for the bigger number and that FSB/BUS is a common error so they usually make a tactical error and state something like FSB800 for Pentium4s or something when its really FSB200. Another common site that gets FSB wrong is TomsHardware

yes

Cease this mono-syllable and single-sting crap.

but your telling me that if I have a computer operating with a FSB of 333 Mhz that its not really running at that rate???

Correct. Its not actually operating at that ... the clock is 133MHz but since it can do two operations per pulse, its effectively DDR266
