No, 400 FSB is 200x2. 800 FSB (200x4) is for P4's. That's a nice board. Good luck! :D BipolarBill 03-19-2004, 11:26 PM K7 designates an AMD motherboard. AMD motherboards support a "real" FSB of 100, 133, 166 or 200MHz. DDR "doubles" the effective FSB to 200, 266, 333 and 400MHz respectively. The 800MHz refers to an MSI Pentium 4 motherboard, no doubt. webslinger 03-19-2004, 11:33 PM so, I assume the person was incorrect on the forum he was at and needed to be at a P4 forum? another question, will this board handle the Athlon 64 processors? Direct1 03-19-2004, 11:35 PM another question, will this board handle the Athlon 64 processors? Nope. webslinger 03-19-2004, 11:50 PM will I really need a Athlon 64 if i overclock a xp-2600? Direct1 03-19-2004, 11:52 PM will I really need a Athlon 64 if i overclock a xp-2600? What does that mean? BipolarBill 03-19-2004, 11:54 PM Athlon 64 requires a completely different socket. We are talking about apples and oranges here. webslinger 03-20-2004, 12:20 AM in gaming and higher processor applications, if i overclock the Athlon 2600, do you really think i would really need a Athlon 64 processor and board at this time? webslinger Direct1 03-20-2004, 12:46 AM Need and Want? No you don't need it. The question is do you want it? It's about $200 cheaper for the XP2600+ so that may be a factor. SysOpt.com
