You can run up to Duron 1300 (DHD1300AMT1B).

ok but what about the athlon xp's... can i work those at lower fsb clocks or should i jus get a new mobo..

Since Morgan Durons work on your motherboard then underclocked Athlon XP Palomino may work too, but it's impossible to tell it in advance without trying...

and what about the 1800mhz duron... can i run that at 1350mhz or will that chip not work..

It may not work because it 's based on newer core. Even if it runs it'll be just slightly faster than the DHD1300AMT1B that is supported by your board.

though if i get the 1800mhz duron.. it may work cooler than the 1300 one... i bouth a thoroughbred 2600+... now im going to run it with a XP TMC adapter so it will work at 1600mhz though it may be unlcoked so i might be able to overclock it

i have another question since the XP TMC is a lil expensive... would my mobo be able to run athlon xp-m cpus since some of them support 100mhz fsb..
