AXIA or AYHJA?

[typer]

If you had a choice of either an AXIA or AYHJA, which one would you get? I'm thinking of getting a 1.33 ghz AYHJA but have not seen too many postings of people with one. Is it safe to say that it would overclock just as well, if not better than the AXIA Y's? Do the newer steppings usually overclock better? Thanks

Check out the front news page of this site. The lastest info suggests AYHJA is a better overclocker with speeds of 1600+ possible with high-end air cooling.

Given the choice, get the AYHJA but 1.3's are still quite expensive. If you could I'd wait until AYHJA's are more common and maybe even trickle down into the slow processors.

I just ordered a 1.2 that I know is a late week. Maybe I'll get lucky but I'll be happy with either.

If you had these two processors in front of you and you HAD to pick one(oh what a terrible situation to be in ;-)), i would go for the AYHJA. From what i've read theyre far exceed the "overclockability" of the AXIA. However, as of right now they are fairly rare to us consumers so it might be a little while before they hit the mainstream local vendors. I think i heard that OCZ has a few in stock but i suspect those will be gone before the weekend is up, so if you really want one bad head over there and see if you can snatch one up.
