Petz,

To me it would make sense for all TBirds to use 133 MHz bus except that putting them on an AMD 750-based board will severely underclock them.

This may be a stupid question, but are the Athlon chips multiplier-locked? I thought they were not. It the chips are not multiplier-locked, than there is no problem, other than a slightly lower performance with 100 MHz FSB vs 133 MHz.

Joe

Petz re <<Anyone know if the TBirds that come out in June will be 266 MHz bus (133 DDR) or 200 MHz bus.>>

200 MHz

Re <<But what about the AMD 760 chipset?>>

That is DDR with 266 MHz for the memory and the processor.
