The Thunderbird core of AMD Athlon CPU. Available in speeds ranging from [650] MHz to 1.4 GHz. Most are Socket A CPUs, though some were made in Slot A versions for backward compatability. All are made on a 0.18 process, with 256k of L2 cache, and 64K of L1. Athlon [Thunderbirds] (especially the higher models like the 1.33 and the 1.4) became known for their immense heat output, especially when [overclocked]. Since most heatsinks at the time still used 60mm fans, a Delta 38 was often used to cool them off, despite it sounding like a hair dryer. A Tbird 1.4 pumps out about 75 watts of heat at stock speed and voltacge (1.75), and it wasn't untill the likes of the AX-7 came along that they became more accessable to overclocking. The record for Thunderbird overclocking was, I believe, set by a man in Japan who used LN2 (Liquid Nitrogen) to chill a 1GHz AXIA Thunderbird, which he then [overclocked] to some 2 GHz.
