I’ve got an old socket A mother board with a XP1700 processor. I want to upgrade the processor to the XP 3000 or 3200. Question is will the mobo run it? See board specs below.

GA-7VTXE+
1. Support DDR266 memory
2. ATX form factor

CPU
1. Socket A for AMD Athlon™/AMD Athlon™XP/Duron™ 200/266MHz FSB processors
2. Supports 500MHz ~ 2000+ CPU and faster
3. FSB adjustable by BIOS up to 161MHz(no guarantee)
4. Supports CPU multiplier 5.0/5.5/.../12.5
5. CPU voltage overclockable by adding 5%, 10% CPU voltage

Chipset
1. VIA KT266A system controller north bridge
2. VIA VT8233A V-Link south bridge
3. AC97 Codec

Appreciate any input ( and no, I can't afford a new comp, Har!)
