CoffeeFiend Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 It's an older board:-Socket 478, not 775 -- it's been a LOT of years since I've seen a socket 478 CPU in any store, so you'd need to find one second hand. Supports P4's with a 800 MHz FSB up to 3.4 GHz.-it takes old DDR which costs more than DDR2-old AGP 8x slot (no PCI-E) for they don't really make new vid cards for anymore (again, 2nd hand might be your best bet)...Anyways. It's a fairly typical older P4 board. I wouldn't spend a dime on something that old personally. Especially when a LOT of motherboards from that era are known to have bad caps.
