T-Bird chip question

I'm not sure what chip I should buy. This is my first build and really want to keep things simple. Monarch is selling mobo and chip packages that look like good deals but I'm not sure of what one would be best in the long run. 1.0 T Bird is 100 bucks less than the 1.2. They also have a 1.13 that has a 266 FSB for the same money as the 1.2. I have good ram (crucial pc133 cas2) and everything else to put the system together.

 
I haven't looked at the packages, but given the options you describe, I'd take the 1.13 with the 266MHz FSB. Assuming there are OC options on the mobo, you can prolly get it up to 1.2 or higher.
