Athlon 900mhz This Quarter
Steve Gibson

It looks like those guys at TheRegister may have been accurate on the 1,000mhz Athlon CPUs that AMD is planning after all. This ZDNet article has word of the Dresden CPU fab that has AMD contemplating 1,000mhz Athlon CPUs.. But that isnt till next year.  900mhz is slated for later this quarter though!

The company will dedicate the fab, located in Dresden, Germany, Wednesday morning. The first samples of Athlons running at approximately 900MHz are expected later this quarter. ... <snip> ... In a dedication ceremony, AMD CEO W. J. Sanders is expected to tell attendees that the fab will be producing 1GHz, or 1,000MHz, Athlon chips next year. AMD's Athlon roadmap shows those chips coming in the second half.

Wonder how high those Kryotech guys will crank these...
