    i have a Gigabyte GA-7N400-L motherboard, and i would like to upgrade my AMD Athalon XP 2800 processor for one last gasp of use from this system.

    i have tried Newegg, and Zipzoomfly, but i cannot locate any Socket A / 462 (453 PIN ) cpu's for sale anywhere in the USA. Ebay only shows these things available from overseas.

    anybody know where to get Barton / " performance " 3000+ or 3200 AMD CPU?

    any help would be GREAT! i know i need to get a new board with PCI express and Dual core, but i dont want to just yet, as this as been a reliable set up.

    HELP !!

    Bartons are $65 plus, but I didn't see any 3000+ ones.

    And if you want to upgrade to a high-end AGP VC, you better do it NOW, as they don't make them anymore, good ones, that is.
