<A HREF="http://www.newegg.com" target="_new">NewEgg</A> has XP 1900+ cpus with AGOGA stepping (core) for $130US. <A HREF="http://www.exhardware.com/reviews.php?Id=77&Page=2" target="_new">ExHardware</A> has a review which states how wonderful an overclocker the cpu is (1.6G->1.8G@1.8v). I'd like to know if the performance of this cpu differs greatly from the standard 1900+ core. Also, I've read that the AGOIA/W and ARIOA/Y cores (1600+ XP) OC better than the newer AGOGA. Is this still the case? Which is best bang-for-buck?
I recall reading, that a large batch of AGOGA cores were misaligned when their laser bridge incisions were made, resulting in unlockable cpus. Was this the only batch that had this problem and are they out of circulation yet? I am planning to buy a new cpu from NewEgg and don't want to get stuck with an unlockable cpu.
