Sempron 3100 & K8T800

[petrolhead2003]

I have a K7upgrade -880 C/W a 754 bridge(K8T800 chipset) and will be recieving a (Cheap price=ebay)Sempron 3100.

What sort of performance should i expect.

I know that the k8t800 chipset does not have an agp/pci lock-that means that i'll probably only be able to up the fsb to about 225. 9x225=2025mhz.
hopefully my 512ddr400 will do that,or i'll have to set it to 166 and then up the fsb.

Presently i'm using an XP2000+.

Any other idea's for tweaking?

Have i missed any important factors in the potential of this chip?

Obviously an NF3-250 mb will allow me to get 2.4ghz+,maybe later.

I would say it should be as fast as a XP3200+, but I'm not too familiar with 64 series

Now,i know for a fact it will slaughter an XP3200+.

Stop yer kidding.

Less cache, less speed, it's going to ____________ a Barton?
