Default Compatabilty Issue
Hey Guys,

I just bought a AMD XP 1700 Mhz. I have a Gigabyte Socket A GA-7ZXE, product info at:

http://www.giga-byte.com/products/7zxe.htm



Just wondering whether the CPU will work alright with the motherbaord as i have not yet tried it, as the gigabyte webiste says 1.5mhz or faster, with a BIOS update, but im not sure.



Please Help !

Regards

Gibbsy

Default Hello Gibbsy, and welcome.
Yep, update your BIOS with your present CPU then swap 'em out.

Enjoy!

Mucks
