DO NOT consider overclockwarehouse!!! I would tell you my horror story, but I am sick of talking about it. Go to Resellerratings.com and read what people have been saying about them.
I feel that it is more than worth your time to just make a chance purchase on a uncertified chip, and if you have poor results, sell the chip on ebay and get another one. If you are considering a t-bird and are able to look at the "codes" (like at a computer show), you can check the recent articles at overclockers.com on which ones are reporting good results. |

AXIA core is the new high end rev core that seems to be lurking. they are said to be run off from the 1.3Ghz Tbirds adn most are able to get to 1.5Ghz without much trouble.
