It says at their web that it supports low power CPU's. Is that Tbred's? So
now we don't have to change that capacitor stuff or what?
And question is also how high this BIOS goes - is it still 2100?

Anyone try a Athlon XP chip above 2100 yet???

Waiting on this so I can upgrade.

Thanks

Dragon+ w. bios kvxa2ba8, AMD XP 2200+, no known issues
until yet. The board has been modified for XP Thoroughbr. by Soyo.

After flashing the bios the original settings still
active, no clearing of CMOS or jumperswitching needed

There was some questions about the new bios and that the board could now
support a Thoroughbred chip. I can't see this myself but was wondering if
anyone has try the Thoroughbred chip without replacing the Cap and only
upgrading the bios???
