PIII near 1GHz and beyond

[Brett I. Holcomb]

I have had several PIII Coppermines running 933 since they came out - one is
a dual board and they work well - no problem with the 933s.

I heard that few years ago there was an issue with Intel and it's Coppermine
1,13 Ghz CPU.
So if we talk about Coppermine CPU's running at 1 Ghz or little lower-933
etc....are they 100% OK in that regard? What about Tualatin? It uses
different technology,so I would assume it neved had that kinda problem?
Though I guess it's hard to find Tualatin PC nowadays (maybe back then
people mostly bought p4 of the same speed...?)

Got three 1 GHz P3s here not problems at all. The chip you refer to was
quickly withdrawn and did not get sold in any quantity. The Tualatin wasn't
affected however you are unlikely to ever find one, I know because I have
been looking.
