the 570 chip is part of the mainboard, not a sub board as in later machines, options available , get yourself a 570E mainboard of ebay ( seen em for £25 bin) the 570E is a p3 500 that wil fit directly in the 570, I am about to do exactly the same thing with mine .

Although most 570's have 13" screens, some have 12" and the ones with 12" screens probably won't be able to work with the 570E motherboards because of the video difference.
