I HAVE NO MONEY!

Which one of those processors is cheap and can easily go to 1000MHz?

Duron 700MHz 83 Euro
Duron 750MHz 97 Euro
Duron 800MHz 118 Euro
Duron 850MHz 147 Euro

The 800 and 850 are virtually certain to hit a gig, but with good cooling you stand a pretty good chance with the slower ones - just look at all the 600's at a gig! If you have the A7V or KT7 mobo you can do a volt mod to it to go past 1.85V, and provided you can keep your temps in check (around 40-45C) you should be able to take pretty much any duron to a gig with 2V+. What's the rest of your system like? ie mobo, hsf etc...

I'll sell you my old duron 700 @ 1065 air cooled, 1102 water cooled!

with good cooling any of those is pretty likely to hit a gig... the higher ones prob. have a slighlty higher chance, but if money is an issue then don't stress.. you'll still get a nice overclock out of the lower ones.

Duron 700@945 1.85V KT7raid
Chrome Orb + artic silver (46°C on full load)
if i get an alpha or a fop38, i'm sure to get the gig !

go for the Duron700 !

Any of them will.
I easily got my 700 to 1000 @ 1.7v or 1.75v, without the voltage mod.
just need to use a good motherboard.

If you are in a tight budget get the 700. Mine runs at 1016(9.5x107 at 1.80) rock solid. It will take some work and experimenting but you should be able to get a nice overclock with it. (mine ran good at 10x100, but would give me a reg error about every 10 boots) so I experimented some more. Cooling is a big issue...Keep it cold.I took a pep 66 and turned the shroud around so the fan is at the bottom, pulling air thru the heatsink. Then I mounted a 92mm fan right above it-sucking the heat out and right into the bottom of my ps-which exhausts out the back and it runs between 37 and 41 degrees. PC progress is good at around 60, they are about an 45 minutes from me. Or for 48 you can go here...duron 700 for 48 (http://www.upgradeplanet.com/shop/default.asp?idGroup=223&mscssid=3XVFDH9909S92MA200J74Q3KPA3N3DGD)
