I'd like to upgrade one of my systems (Chaintech 7NIL1/nForce 2 mboard),
with a lower power processor, and I've read that the Athlon XP-M
processors work fine as long as the motherboard supports the
Barton core. Is that true? Is it just "drop-in" or Will I need
to set the processor voltage/speed/multiplier manually?
Does the BIOS need to be updated specifically for the XP-M?
Also, there appear to be different versions of the mobile processors.
What are the main differences?
Thanks,
Doug
