How fast (on average) should I be able to get this baby? I have a Duron 600@900 stable, but I was hoping for more out of the Athlon.

The athlon should make it to a gig with good cooling - like temps in the low 40's. If you've got the A7v or KT7 you can do a volt mod to get more out, but that'd require really good aircooling, watercooling or better (ie peltiers).
I just replaced my Duron 600@950 with a T-bird 900. Damn thing won't go above 1000 (Abit KT7 Raid) with a modified Orb cooler. With better cooling, who knows? I probly won't ever find out since the best HSF i can get without ordering one is the Orb.
I am guessing the 800 will do a gig tho...
Good luck, and let us know!

I've got an MSI K7T Pro2-A. I'm hoping the Athlon will do 1gig... we'll see in a few days!
