Shuttle SN41G2 upgrade?

[pjn]

I would like to upgrade the above system but don't know if current mother boards will fit the box. The existing board is SFF/ATX. I have the first version of this b/b system with an AMD Athlon XP 2500+ chip. (I think this is a socket A setup). If I upgrade will the cooling system be up to spec and will the colloing pipe block fit over the chip or will it have moved on the m/board. Thanks, Phil

if you're gona upgrade the mobo and cpu you might as well upgrade the chasis as well; there's plenty of fairly cheap S939 barebones out there you could get and would allow you future upgrades your socket A system doesnt allow.
As for the cooling system; loadsa shuttle models use the ICE system, and the one you have should be good for pretty much any socket A cpu

you WILL need a new barebones there im afraid pjn. the mobo's cant be upgraded.
