[SLUG] fried CPU

I put a new fan in the computer I use as a DVR. Normally that's not a cause
for concern, but in this case the new fan was maybe 1/4" thicker than the
old (noisy) one, which (I'm guessing) shoved the duct into the CPU fan,
stopped it from spinning, and fried the CPU.

Anyone know what CPUs can be used in an Asus A7V333 motherboard? Obviously
AMD 2400+ (133 MHz * 15 = 2 GHz) can be, as that's what I had in there.
The manual doesn't say, and the email to tech support is some web thingy [1]
that won't submit.

         Two atoms are walking along.  Suddenly, one
       stops.  The other says, "What's wrong?" "I've lost
         an electron." "Are you sure?" "I'm positive!"
