Which is best to O'Clock--a T'Bird 750 or 800 or 850Mhz--Trying to get to 1Ghz

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???????????????

 
if they all have the copper interconnects and are all made on the same fab process, they should all have about the same chance of reaching 1ghz. if it were me i'd buy the 750.
 
Socket-A Tbirds are not that great for overclocking. I had two 800, that run 950 @1.85V 70% stable, and 930 100% stable.

If you for sure want to make 1Gig, an 850 or 900 is required!!!
