Duron or Morgan ?

[ares]

Hallo

I am about to buy a Duron950 in order to overclock it to 1100 or maybe 1200....but someone told me that 950 it's the final limit for Duron and starting with 1000 MHz Duron isn't Duron but Morgan...

Is it true ?

And something else :
If I buy the 950 - how much can I increase FSB (I was thinking at 112 but I see here 140 and even 170) and how much the clock multiplicator ?

I want to buy an EPOX 8KHA+ in a day or two....but I don't know what CPU to buy - if the 950 can't be overclock to more then 1000 I have to buy an Athlon.

Please reply soon because I have to buy a CPU very soon.
I prefer to reply on E-MAIL : icepey@yahoo.com

Welcome to the forums!

Yes that is true, Duron 1000mhz and up is the morgan core,on the overclocking it just depends,you will have to play with it.I would buy an athlon just because the morgan cored Durons are around the same price , I would reply to you through email but why didnt you just have email you when anyone reply's?

Thank you Wildone for your answer.
A few minutes ago I received from AMD an e-mail telling the same thing.
Ok - it seems that is no deal to buy a Duron950.... I already have thought of buying an thunderbird at 1000mhz or a Duron morgan cored .... and your suggestion deceided me to buy the Thbird.
About your question with my desire to be replyed by mail at my threat - I'm very new here an I did'n know how to receive the answer.... Now I know.

Thank you again and good bye !
