Running a AMD k7 850 at the mo & the motherboard is beginning to play up so I've decided to upgrade.
Any reccomendations? Need as fast & cheap as possible & Ideally using my existing 512 pc133 sdram & none of this Intel crap

Cheers

Ebuyer seems to have good prices, good delivery to, just got a monitor from them.

I have an ECS K5S7A which thhey are now selling the 'PRO' version of for ~ £28 - there is a very good BBS for this Mobo too if you are interested.

Max chip seems to be Athlon XP2400 266FSB @£57 also on Ebuyer...

Be very careful running more than 1 stick of SDRAM on those boards, even in the pro variant, many users have major stability issues, which are solved by using DDR on the board instead

Before you buy anything, email what you need to:

sales@dan-e.co.uk and say Paul sent you.

Pound to a penny they can beat any price you've seen advertised
