Which motherboard supports this chip?
How overclockable is it?
Any experience with this chip?
any reviews?

Thank you.

Which motherboard supports this chip?

Eventually, all 266fsb capable boards should support TBred. All that is needed to make a Palomino-compatible board TBred compatible is a BIOS update. However, not all at the moment have the BIOS update. In Anandtech's testing in their Tbred review, they tested a bunch of KT333 mobo's to see which were currently Tbred compatible. See below for that review.

How overclockable is it?

Thats a good question It is unclear how retail TBreds will oc. The samples that reviewers were given have had mixed results. Anandtech got barely a 50MHz oc, HardOCP hit nearly 2GHz, AMDmb posted an article where they tested 3 tbred's for their oc ability (you can find that article here). The early results are not good generally, but still it may improve over time (hopefully).

Any experience with this chip?

Not that I know of. I don't think any store has them in stock yet, all of the CPU's are being gobbled up by the OEMs.

any reviews?

Got plenty of them
AMDmb
Anandtech
HardOCP
Ace's Hardware
ExtremeTech
VIA Hardware
Tom's Hardware

Bunch of good info in each of those reviews. Hope this helps If you need more help or advice, don't hesitate to throw me a PM, Email or IM

Thank you Atlon4all,

I thought that the new Athlon 0.13mm was gonna change its socket and needed yet another motherboard just like the p4 but I see that this is not the case, since still amd made that chip a 462 pin wired (socket A). Mmm, it seems like a good proccessor.

 

[Athlon4all]

Nope. All future K7 based Athlon's will use Socket A, the socket will only change when HAMMER comes.

Mmm, it seems like a good proccessor.

Well, it depends if you are interested in ocing. To be honest, Intel's 1.6A and 1.8A CPU's when OC'ed really cannot be beat by even the 2200+ and you can do it with just the nice quiet retail HSF. So, personally, if you are willing to oc, I would go Intel.

The p4 switch to .13 did not require a new mobo....P4 willamettes (.18 micron) aslo came in a socket 478 style....My mobo takes both...

I have heard that the P4 would really perform to its maximum with Rambus memory specially with PC1066 RDRAM (4.2GB/s of Bandwidth) and the Asus P4T533.

I like the P4 1.6A. I would be very happy running it at 2.5Ghz. I heard of someone running it at 2.8Ghz.

I am also in a quandry as to whether i should go Intel or AMD. If i got Intel with 2.0A+1 GIG 1066 RDRAM+P4-533 Mobo i am looking at $750 while an AMD 2000+ XP + 1 GIG DDR RAM (PC2400)+ a KT333 mobo will cost $400.

So its almost double the cost to go with Intel while even if i am lucky enuf to get the CPU to OC to 2.53 GHz i doubt i will get more than 5% performance boost (if that) on games (I just game on my PC).

I leaning strongly towards the .13 2000+ XP due its low cost and any OC i can get on it would be just gravy.
