Strategy

The Athlon Thunderbird 1400-MHz processor is a rarity in OEM markets. Enthusiasts with 100-MHz processor bus systems have upgraded to this model, the last 100-MHz Thunderbird produced. Most chips of this speed grade are distributed in the retail market segment. Average overclocking returns are in the 1500 to 1550 MHz range, with the occasional model surpassing 1600 MHz when combined with a later-generation motherboard chipset.
