XP 1.9 (Pal) or XP 1.8 (T-Bred)

Which should i go for? Both the same price. I don't know what T-Bred it is (A or B) which is a bit of a [-peep-].
Basically i want to assume it's a T-Bred A. Should I get the 1.9 Palomino or the 1.8 T-Bred?

The palomino didnt get up to 1900mhz... or do you mean XP1900+?
I would bo for the Tbred CPU regardless. Its actually very hard to find TbredA's now, most being the far better TbredB.
Even if you dont overclock the speed differences between the two models is pretty small, and the Tbred will run at a lower voltage and thus cooler. And if you do overclock then the Tbred will go quite some way.

Also, IIRC the TbredA has the ID core code AxxxA and the tbredB is AxxxB.

Even if you DO get a TbredA (which i think is unlikely nowerdays) it will still get up to 1800-1900Mhz on aircooling.

My TbredA XP1700+ can run 1833Mhz @ 1.75v.
