|  age old question, upgrade or not? I'm getting the itch to upgrade. I was thinking of IWILL kk266r and a 1330 chip for around $250. Is the current athlon socket a config going to be here for a while? Or would it be best to wait. All opinions and suggestions welcome. Thanks

| The socket A is supposedly hear to stay. I heard it is supposed to work with the palomino. Where can you get that set up for so cheap?

| I made a mistake, It's $300 for both at pcboost.com. I bought my 700e with them and was impressed with their service and the chip itself (luck).

| The IWILL's will support the new generation of Athlon chips. They have the 3 phase power that will accomodate them - I believe the Abit does also. At this point I would wait for the Athlon 4 - it's very close to being released. I'm going to move this over to the AMD/Via forum...
