Jim my point was there are many Stable MB using 1Ghz Tbirds Here you can surmise from Anand that MB become unstable @ 105Mhz and not the T-Bird. Milo "At the time of publiciation, we had two Thunderbird samples to play around with. Running at 1 GHz and 800 MHz meant that we had CPU's with a multiplier of 10X and another with a multiplier of 8X. Motherboard selection was also limited, with about 5 pre-production models available to us. These factors conspired to prevent us from overclocking our anandtech.com Thunderbirds beyond 1.05 GHz and 840 MHz using a 105 MHz FSB speed. Even with such a mild overclock, the systems were not 100% stable under these conditions. The fact that both CPU's topped out at an FSB speed of 105 MHz seems to indicate that there may be hope for the Thunderbird to overclock more than 5% once final boards are available, but only time will tell."
