I have a pretty old system now compared to you lot but it still does ok for me. My mobo is an Asus A7N8x-E and I`m running a clocked Athlon XP-Mobile at 2.2. Is this the best socket A cpu I can have in this mobo? (I no i could get an XP3200+ but i`m running at that now no probs). I have seen a cheap Barton xp-m2500 unlocked. Can`t remember whether or not the Barton was better than the Athlon? And also, would it work in my mobo? Cheers for refreshing my memory!!
 
Thanks for the reply. I am running air cooled at the moment n can just about hit 2.3ghz. I got my current mobile athlon from ocuk. As for it being a barton I have no idea? How do i tell without ripping it out?
