Where can I buy an Axia 1.2? Anyone buy from a site that sold you an axia, if so which one?

- Thanks a ton :)

I just got a 1.2 GHz Tbird AXIA from Newegg.com
Haven't tried to overclock it yet though

I heard that most 1.2 Gig T'Birds are AXIA, it's the 1 Gigs that are hard to find.

Anybody have any axia CPUs from pcboost.com? They are always at the top of Pricewatch, but I never really seem to hear any feedback on them.

I believe the axia 1g's compuwiz had last week were 200fsb not 266's

Not sure if they are normally 266 or 200's though

Not a dumb question. Those are manufacturing Lots, The Product number on your core has that info.

As soon as we think we have it figured out, they get another batch in that are not the ones we are looking for. I just went thru this. I got those 10 AXIA, then immediately ordered another 10, and those were AVIA.

Not quite as good. 1.4 for sure though, out of 9/10, and one that is just flaky at 1.3 for some reason.

I just got a 1.2g from Comp-U-Plus and it is the AVIA code rather than the AXIA, so I would avoid ordering from them...

Received my 1.2 FSB 266 Thursday of last week and it was an AXIA. Haven't put the system together yet to test it.

Fatelvis: I don't see any 1.2 Gig OEM T'Birds on Newegg's web site. Did you get a retail AXIA?

What kind of cooling do you use when getting those babys to 1500. I guess although they are very oc friendly, you have to do quite a decent job to get out those watts.

cnhoff et al,.....(just correcting the physics)

The watts/heat created always comes out...the issue is what does the internal temp have to rise to in order to force the watts out, ie, the equilibrium condition.

Water flow analogy...visualize water flowing at a constant flow rate into a tall "vented" standpipe that has a partially open drain valve. The level will rise, increasing pressure and drain flow until drain flow = input flow.

Now close the drain valve a little bit, increasing resistance. The drain flow decreases temporarily. So the level will rise, gradually increasing pressure some more until drain flow = input flow again.

The change in level/pressure is analagous to the change in cpu temp if you changed to a poorer, higher thermal resistance heatsink.

You don't change a cpu's power dissipation when you change the hs, you change the resistance to heat flow. So temp changes because of that resistance change at constant heat flow, just like the constant water flow/vented standpipe/drain valve analogy.

Just saw two AXIA's behind a display case in a local store in Calgary, Alberta. One was a 1ghz(133) and a 1.2(100).
