Is this a good deal???????????????

The cpu I have is a 1.2 t-b which should have a fsb of 133 but only has one of a 100. I am going to take it back to the computer store and get one of 133. However I can upgrade it to a 1.4 t-b for 27 dollars is it worth it?

I don't think so. The site that I usually buy on (newegg) only has a $10 price difference between a 1.2 and 1.4 tbird

Hmmm, I'd agree that in general it's not worth it. Especially since to overclock isn't that different between the 1.2 and 1.4. But I'd ask to see the two chips. If the stepping on the 1.4 is a lot better than the 1.2, then I'd do it.

Absolutely! Look for the best stepping, and if the 1.4 has the better one, go for it.
