What you want is a 266 DDR T-bird. They are coming out right now in some stores and they run a 133 double data rate bus. The performance increase seems minimal and you could just overclock your current chip from 100 to 133 and run fine! Have fun!

I bought a 1GHz T-Bird that was at 10 x 100, I unlocked it and went to 7.5 x 133 right away (I think I booted ONCE at the standard 10 x 100 :) ) and then overclocked from there (I'm at 145 x 9 right now). So save the money and get a 100 T-Bird instead of a 133.

Hi,I bought my 1 ghz T-Bird off of PriceWatch,Got it for 178+shipping.When I booted up it gave me two settings in bio's,100x10 or 133x7.5.I took the 133x7.5,havent OCed it yet but will after i make some changes and see how stable i remain after that.On my 2nd day with it.
