    The CPU is a socket A Duron 1600. http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/52134/rb/26958401254

    The board is an MSI MS 6340 with the VIA VT82C686A chipset.

    I was thinking of buying the Duron chip as it is cheap and fits in the board i already have(which incidentally already has a 750MHz or1GHz CPU but i think it got fried, i'm in the process of rebuilding it and havent found any definitive information that tells me the 1.6 Duron won't work.

    I managed to find out that it won't be suitable. FSB is too high for the board i think ?
