pcu upgrade or not?
I don't know but it sure seems like I have an obscure mobo, the ASUS-Tech P4S-LA, which I got for free from a friend who doesn't have a clue as to where he got it. Its got the socket 478 which originally had a burned out P4 1.5g cpu. I replaced it with a 2.0g Celeron and it has run beautifully but since then I have gotten into a lot of gaming. What I want to know is can that mobo handle a faster cpu using the cpu's full capabilities? I should probably ask too, is would it make much of a difference in the gaming with say a 2.8g?
Now, before I get b****** at for not supposedly doing a google search etc., I HAVE!! That's why I'm saying the P4S-LA is obscure. I know HP had it in their Pavilion etc. but they don't really give much info on the board itself. ASUS also doesn't have any listing on the mobo and it's their manufacture. Someone told me it was comparable to another ASUS board but when I got the manual the pic was way different.
