lol

there is no problem there

that motherboard is socket A... and there are no socket A processors that run @ 2.8GHz

im guessing that you have either an athlon or a sempron 2800 and were expecting it to be 2.8GHz well its not. its just 2GHz.. but it is the equivilant of an intel 2.8 which is why its called a 2800

you can overclock your processor if you really want to but you risk causing it damage, besides 2.0GHz is plenty enough speed to do nearly everything.

even if you do decide to overclock youll never get 2.8GHz out of it. its just not possible.

if you want to speed up your system get some more memory
id suggest 1 gig of memory would do you nicely
