750 MHz marks the first official entry in the Athlon Thunderbird series of processors. The Thunderbird 750 also represents a great overclocking choice, as this processor can scale beyond 900 MHz with little effort. A small percentage of the Socket A version of this processor can even offer scalability toward 1 gigahertz with good cooling.
