Max specs supported by p5b-mx

[ayushman9]

Hi friends , I want to known about the MAXIMUM specs like processor type and speed ,size of rams ,agp support etc by Asus P5B-MX/WIFI-AP.

Can it's bios be updated or is no longer supported?

What will be suitable alternative to the board if one want's a motherboard within the same prize but higher future compatibility.

u can use an E6600, or any other 1066Mhz FSB processor, it will support. (not sure about quad-core, maybe it does not support quad core)

667Mhz 4Gb memory

PCI-Express

I dont think asus will be releasing anymore BIOS for the board, so it is what it is.

well the website once said it support quad core not extreme ,so i am confused.

Then it does, but mind it, it will not support 1333FSB, don't think that if u put in a 1333FSB processor it will run it at 1066FSB, the board DOES NOT even boot.
(I don't know if the new BIOS allows it, so u're gonna have to check that)
