I've heard that 1GHz and above Athlons come with a 266MHz FSB. I want to buy a TBird 900 because of pricing, but don't know if I can overclock the FSB on the 900 to at least 133MHz. What's the story?
Thanks.
 
they make 133fsb versions of the 1ghz but currently they cost as much as a regular 1.2 ghz. you can use the pencil trick in a 900 and run it @ 133 mhz fsb but that would be overclocking and some people arn't comfertable with that. the only problem is that you have to be able to get the processor to do 1ghz or it won't accept a 133mhz fsb, or so i've heard. I can't attest to that last part.
 
Get TB900 and look for a blue core. The official fsb designation doesn't make any difference. You can push it at 133 an over anyhow.
