171677 2003-08-30 01:18:00 I am wanting to go as far as my motherboard will let me.

That is what it can support.

It says the highest it can go is a Thoroughbred 2600, with a 133/266MHz FSB

I was looking on pricespy, and there seems to be nearly none of the right Athlon 2600 cpu's. They are all Barton, or Thoroughbred's with a 333MHz FSB.

Would a Thoroughbred 2600, with a 333Mhz FSB work? Cant you just make it run slower or something, or does it actually have to be a 266 one?

171679 2003-09-01 04:01:00 You probably need to look at second hand or phoning companies up to see if they've got them but it's not something they'd be wanting to stock since it's pretty old in computer years.

Could try the sole agents of AMD, see if they've got any left, I'm sure they'll be willing to part with them as they would be having trouble selling them, maybe.
