Maybe I'm beating a dead horse here, but I will soon buy a Abit KT7-Raid board and a Alpha 6065 Heatsink/Fan combo, and I'm wondering which processor of the 3 might make it to around 1000Mhz and have the best chance to be stable?? Its not an issue of money, as I am willing to spend what it may be to get any of these 3 processors; but does the 750 processor have any more potential to hit that 1Ghz threshold, as compared to a 800 or 850 processor?? Is it just the luck of the draw when it comes to something like this?? The thing that is a plus if I can't get to a stable 1000Mhz by O'Clocking, I will still have a 'better' processor if I get the 800 or 850 processor instead of a relativly slower 750 processor.
Is there really any diffrent potenital to O'Clock between the 3 diffrent Thunderbird 'base' processors.........man I need to get a Life :) BOTOH, I'm just tryin to get the most ban for the buck.

WHAT DO YOU THINK???????????????

My 800 went up to 950.
My friend's 700 can only go to 800.

I'm using Alpha.
