I just realized, is the 1 GHz AYHJA default 200 MHz fsb?? If so, does it just easily clock in fsb speeds of 266 and above to get it to an average of 1.66 GHz? That would be like 12.5 x 133, so this chip runs at 266(ddr) and above with no problem??? AMD should have tested their genius steppings, themselves!

As far as the default FSB speed for certain chip stepping codes, I have seen almost every stepping in both 200 and 266 FSB versions. It really is of no consequence to overclockers or other people who have the ability to change the multiplier, as the chip can generally be unlocked and run at either FSB. (Very few exceptions, almost all Durons and Athlons I see and hear about can run at anywhere up to 145 fsb)

So basically, if it comes down to buying a 1 GHz AXIA-9 266 chip or a 1 GHz AHYJAR-Y chip that's rated for 200 MHz FSB, get the latter because it's a better stepping.
