I have a socket A 1.0 ghz Tbird that runs for days at a time playing any game I want to play at any time (it has been burned in also). Your milage may vary of course but I would like to get a price check on this item.

Thanks folks.

I just made a deal for one of these at $150.

Tanks, duder.

Hammer01,

Yo my man, thats about the going rate! Hope all has been well with you

Not bad and it is good to see ya about there Morph.

Your milage may vary of course...

as in it will run fewer days stabley (is stabley even the correct spelling ?)

I believe it is stably, but it should run good in most any machine at this speed I would think.

I would say around $155 or so. it was just a joking comment on the "it can run for days...your milage may vary concept" nothing personal, or nothing intended

I know no offense taken.

I was kinda curious about that myself. I'm running a 1ghz @ 1.2 myself. I'm considering and upgrade.

Those 1.3ghz+ look awfully attractive don't they?

Yes that is the current plan, I was looking at, I am a little worried about cooling however, but I have the FOP38 w/ delta so without going to some active type cooling I think that is about the best I can do.

I just had access to 2 AXIA T-birds. Oe was a 1.3 200mhz and the other a 1.33 266. I tried the 1.3ghz and the best I could come up with was 1.4 @ 1.85v on my KT7A. I'll report on the status of the 1.33 later. RubberDuckie owns both of them and I'll let him tell ya what he comes up with. I would assume around 1.45ghz.

Hmm.. I want an extra 200mhz not just a measly 100mhz.

But, either way, I think I'm gonna hold onto my 1ghz @ 1.2 for the time being. I don't see a reason to sell my present CPU for ~$150 and then add $100 to achieve 200mhz more. That works out to be $.50 per mhz. Kinda pricey if you ask me.

Prolly won't be too long, before I upgrade, I just want at least 300mhz+ before I dish out anymore money.

BTW,..I neglected to add that I tested the 1.3 200 @ 1.4ghz with that exact cooler. A GlobalWin FOP38-1 with Delta. It's a noisy lil bastard but, from what I've read, it's one of the best you can buy. Esp for $25!

hammer01,

Still got the chip? I've been looking for a tbird. What's the code on the core?

I've got some trade stuff, nice hard drive, video card, here: http://www.pcabusers.net/forums/showthr ... eadid=7344

Also have some paypal/and or cash.

Maybe we can work something out? LMK

Thanks

As a matter of fact.... I think my friend might be willing to get rid of it. Let's continue this through E-mail.
