Supported CPU: Socket A AMD Athlon/Athlon XP/Duron Processors. This is your M/B.
From new Egg
Model: AMD Athlon XP 2400+
Core: Thoroughbred. This is your CPU.
Not supported by M/B. Key word CORE.
M/B supports Athlon/Athlon XP/Duron core.
As Intel and AMD improves function on the existing
CPU, its core, they give it a new model name. Pins may be the same but not the internal working parts.
Did this help or just muddle things up?
