Reply: (edit)It's not cost effective. You'd have to pay out close to $100 for a Barton core Athlon XP...that is, IF you can find one. The performance wouldn't be that significantly better to justify the expense. If you have a decent board that supports 400FSB (preferrably one based on the nForce2 chipset) & you also have PC3200 RAM, simply overclock your CPU to 2.2GHz & ride out what you have for as long as you can.

Reply: (edit)I'm not gonna recommend another socket A board & CPU because it would be a complete waste of money. What motherboard do you currently have? Make/model/chipset? And what speed RAM do you have...PC2700 or PC3200? Your next upgrade should be a complete rebuild...that will mean board, CPU, video card, & power supply. If you have PC2700 RAM, you'll have to move up to PC3200. You'd be looking at over $300
