Saturday, March 24, 2001 - The Register Edition Steve: I just got this in, Mike Magee, longtime friend of the OCP is no longer at The Register. . . whoa.

RE:"First point I'd like to talk about with the release is all the talk from different analysts and hardware guru's saying that AMD was delaying the release of the 1.33GHz due to problems with the chip. " Would be very surprise of that. I'm running my 1.2GH200FSB at 1.3334GHzFSB266 with great stability. I ever OC it at 1410MzFSB296 but not any more, for the sake of good noise/speed ratio I like it moor at 1.3334GHz. And it's a old 1.2 ... not the "C" version. geocities.com Gottfried

As per some proof that this chip was not delayed, check below. The driver CD for the review system is dated 2-20-01. That would be February 20, 2001. Almost a month before release, AMD was reportedly showing OEM's the 1.33GHz. Delay? AMD went back to their good old release style, not the recent DDR-hype one. A chipset driver CD dated of a month before a release is certainly not abnormal, it's rather wise.
