The thunderbird core is more prone to cracking than a new XP (Paly or TBRED) regardless of their size. Seems as if AMD strengthed the core physically
Original XP1600+ On left, T-bred XP1700+ on the right.




I am not an expert on core crushing as the only core I ever crushed/cracked was intentional. Which was that Duron 600. Wanted to see what would go first, the core or the mobo.
