If you get a 1 gig AYHJA or AYHJAR or whatever the newest stepping is, that would be the best Overclocker by percentage. I think it'll hit speeds as high as any of its big brothers b/c I think they're all the same chip with different stamps.
I posted this earlier...lemme know what u guys think:
<< I've posted this a few times, but I really believe there is little or no difference between the AYHJA 1 gigs coming out now and the AYHJA 1.4's out a month or so ago. Its just evolution in their FAB process. As they get better at making chips and tightening up their production methods, they produce faster chips with greater efficiency. Each stepping might just be some engineering code, coupled with their "weeks" to show when it was made and under what process. These chips are probably from the same batch, maybe slightly tested by AMD to see what thresholds they would reach, and then marked. I don't even think AMD bothers to test a 1 gig AYHJA to run at 1 gig, they know it runs at 1.4 stably, so they slap on the 1 gig marking and sell it at that price b/c they still need to meet the demands for all their speeds and fill out their product line. If they have improved both their chip yields as well as their efficiency, it would make no sense for them to use the old process for older steppings. So, they underrate them and sell them at much lower speeds than the chip can handle. Hence, you get the 1 gig AYHJA and AYHJAR's hitting 1.5-1.6 speeds. I still think the 1.7 barrier under conventional cooling methods will be the max for any chip at the 0.18 micron process. 2 gigs will be the next goal once the desktop palomino debuts at 1.5 gigs, 0.13 micron, with less heat, and possibly a built-in heat spreader on-die. >>
