Does anyone one if the nForce 2 motherboards will support this new fsb, when amd comes out with the new cpu's? I have a asus board.

yes, nforce2 supports 400MHz FSB.

Yea, I've been concerned over this.
It seem's as though there are two different northbridge
steppings (A2 & A3) plus two different brands of capacitors (rubycon - blue and gold & nichicon - black and white).
It apperes to me that most people are having the most trouble
with the A2/rubycon (which I have). I haven't tested this, and it's an ongoing topic right now.
What I'm worried about is that, if there is a bios update, supporting the bartons 400 FSB, will it be revision specific.
If anyone has any clues, please add.
