CPU Stepping inquiry for new CPU
Hey gang, last night I attempted to unlock my XP 1800+ to OC without using just fsb adjustments, and I killed the CPU. The dielectric grease ever so slightly touched another set of joined L1 bridge pins. I should have been more careful...
Anyway, I am in need of another CPU, and I was wondering which AMD CPU and stepping to look for without paying the "latest CPU price". I was thinking of trying to find an AGOIA stepping CPU, but I'm not sure if its available in the non XP2000+ price range (significantly higher priced than XP1800 and XP1900).
To make a long story short, I'd like to find a CPU that can reach ~ 2000 mhz if I can. I'm not sure if another 1800+ with AGKGA is the best bet, or if I should look for an AGOIA or something else.
Thanks gang
