Copper and Aluminum

[Ben88]

At what speed do retail Tbirds have a guaranteed copper core? Thanks

I think all the 1G+ CPUs are from the Dresden plant, which uses the copper. All the Durons are using Aluminum. Not sure about where the cutoff is for Tbirds though.

I think you need 1.1gig to be sure it wil be copper

i thought you definately have a copper one if it 1Ghz+

The problem is that I have never seen 1Ghz+ in retail form yet.
