I have at the moment celeron D AT 3.60GHZ 533MHZ
512CACHE,Memory 2gb's at 533mhz the overclocked
works excellant on XP 4.19 stable under clocking is 2.70 this runs valued and is excellant features could have more video graphic memory more shrader
XP or vista 32 bit will run easy.performs very nice any task.Overclocking at 3.60 ghz 533mhz is great but what good does 4.19 ghz do beside excellant race games speed and it does beat core2 unless the top end speed is similar or matched.This for the price is nice.

This is a Micro ATX motherboard. The description says ATX,..but all of you should know the difference. Got this to replace a ABIT mobo,..(junk-imo). All components are attached solid to the mobo, like they should,*cough ABIT) Have had this thing up and running for 3 days now and it's running great!

PCI
Express - Delivering Dramatically Improved Graphics
Doubling the bandwidth of the AGP 8X graphics bus, the new PCI Express represents
the most profound change to desktop architecture in nearly a decade. PCI
Express replaces AGP, allowing much larger amounts of data to move between
the graphics card and the CPU, and will soon replace PCI expansion slots
as well. The PCI standard allows for a 32-bit bus with a maximum throughput
of 133MB/s. By contrast, PCI Express will run at 2.5GHz. PCI Express is
a two-way serial connection that carries data in packets along two pairs
of point-to-point data lines, compared to the single parallel data bus of
traditional PCI. Gamers will benefit from an incredible upgrade in video
quality with PCI Express, because it will allow for more powerful video
cards, inspiring developers to create more realistic environments that will
make games come alive with astonishingly lifelike colors and images. Video
enthusiasts will also benefit because PCI Express will accommodate higher-quality
video throughput (amount of data you can send per second). As network television
moves over to HDTV broadcasts, PCI Express positions the PC platform for
integration into the living room, while also allowing for HD video editing
and other bandwidth-intensive tasks. PCI Express is compatible with existing
PCI drivers and software operating systems and is designed to co-exist with
current PCI hardware.
