Welcome to SysOpt! :)
That motherboard doesn't support AthlonXP CPUs; the best you can get is an Athlon with FSB@200MHz (you didn't say what CPU you have currently, so...) : http://www.pricewatch.com/1/3/3731-1.htm
PC Partner provide BIOS updates but don't state what changes the BIOS updates bring :rolleyes: Be sure to contact them and ask if this CPU is supported before you buy it

First I advise you to e-mail PC Partner and ask them if the Athlon Thunderbird 1.4GHz (with 200MHz FSB) is supported by your motherboard and, if not, do you need a BIOS update to accomplish it.
Second I'd get the CPU I linked above, it's the highest that motherboard can take and is quite a leap if you have something like a Duron 800MHz or so.
