Jim, Goutama, to me the "AMD Inside Info" does not sound legit. AMD engineers also overclocked an Athlon 700mhz to 950mhz using standard cooling, and in lab testing commonly hit 1000mhz. Athlon 800mhz cores are overclocking to 1100mhz with a much better than expected success rate.". Since all Athlonee (my pluralization) have the same core, referring to the "Athlon xxxMHz cores" does not make much sense. Also, The Athlon (k7) is in testing at 900 and 1000mhz, both versions seem ready for production using standard cooling methods! How can there be so many versions of the Athlon so quickly? It just sounds phony. Also, I don't think speed testing is referred to as "overclocking." Petz
