Anyone know if we can buy these 266 fsb athlons yet? I havent been able to find them on pricewatch or pricescan. I am looking for quotes for either a retail version or an oem version with a fan attached. Thx.

As far as I know, the official 133mhz Tbird Palomino's aren't out yet.
However, you can always run the current Tbirds by unlocking the multiplyier and add bumping the FSB to 133mhz.

The 133MHz FSB parts aren't Palominos. They're still T-Birds. The Palominos, when they come out, will most probably be 133MHz FSB, but the current parts aren't Palominos.

I beg to differ :)

I believe at their current manufacturing process with the Tbird's have reached the limit. I doubt anyone can run their 1.2@ 1.4 or higher with the retail fan unless they reduce the power consumption and heat of the CPU. Since the Palomino runs at 133mhz, as well as higher clock speeds it only makes sense.

However if your talking about Tbird Multiplier change and 133mhz FSB with the current Tbird manufacturing process, then I hope they come out soon :)
