Table 2.6 lists the fastest processors you can install according to the<br />
socket type in your system. Note that newer socket designs allow<br />
faster processors, but that the bus speed and clock multiplier settings<br />
of your motherboard are also limiting factors for some CPU<br />
types.<br />
