The Epox website seems to be down at the moment, so I hope that someone here can answer a question or two. You guys are always pretty knowledgable and this mobo was pretty popular awhile back....... What is the fastest PC RAM that the Epox 8Kha+ mobo takes? I have 2 sticks of 256Meg PC2100 and want to add a stick of 512Meg RAM at the fastest speed that the board takes. I know that it will throttle down to match the PC2100, but my intention is to eventually replace those 2 sticks with faster memory as well. Is there another site besides www.epox.com (which seems to be down) to get info on this motherboard? Thanks!

The fastest PC RAM support 512MB X 1 on DDR DIMM 1 with up to PC2100 also can add another 512MB X 1 on DDR DIMM 2. The mainboard doesn't support ECC memory module and do not mix the unbuffered and registered DDR RAM on DIMM 1, DIMM 2 and DIMM 3 socket.

Thanks for the info, Tango. One more question if you don't mind. (I assume that you've had experience with this mobo?) Will the 8Kha+ support an AMD Mobile AthlonXP 2600+ CPU? I know that it's supposed to support the original AthlonXP2600 (FSB266) CPU, but I'm not sure anout this newer _Mobile_ CPU (It's also FSB266). Newegg has this CPU available for $95 at the moment. tango12 wrote:

I don't know about AMD Mobile 2600+ support the board, the only way is to find out on Epox website to see the BIOS update that might say or not. Yes I did own the board and sold it one year ago until I bought NF7-S ver.2 with AMD Mobile 2600+, funny I bought the mobile two weeks ago from newegg.
