New 1GHz CPUs

[Vector]

Does anyone know if all of the new 1GHz thunderbird processors are blue core copper interconnect or just some of them...

If some are still green core, can anyone tell me where I can get a blue core 1GHz processor (what vendor I mean)

I just did the voltage mod on my A7V and got my 700 to 909 rock stable (might even go higher), so I'm sure I could get a 1Gig past 1200

my local store has blue core dresden 950's
running this one @ 1311mhz @ 2.21 volts air cooled

How much are they at your store...

and what kind of heatsink setup are you using?...I've got a PAL6035 with the delta 38cfm kicker...also drilled a hole through my case and set up an 80mm fan with pvc piping to duct air straight to my cpu...runs pretty cool, but my 700t-bird won't go much higher than 909MHz--no matter how high I set the voltage

yea my t bird 850 wouldnt hit 1100 nomatter how cold and howmuch voltage

1090 all day long though

go figure

the t bird 950 blue core here are 250 bucks

that's pretty expensive for a 950...
I've seen 1.1GHz at icompz.com (supposed to be a reputable dealer) for $220 I think

Oh yeah, by the way, AZZKICKER, what do you use to test the stability of your system...

I usually let 3DMark2000 loop the demo for about 2 hrs and then hit the system with SysMark2000...

Do you have something that puts a tremendous strain on the cpu or what?

well lastnight i had prime95 torcher test going along with sisoft burn in utility

then after about a hour of that i played Q3 for 4 hours

seemed ok to me

then when i went to bed i ran prime95 again but till just a few mins ago when i got back on here

its rocking and i didnt mind paying that much for a Blue Minnie
