Yes, thats why I test each and every hand-picked chip. So far the latest batches have all done at least 2.4GHz. I had a few AXIA chips, they are nice. I use to run my old AXIA Tbird 1GHz at 1.7GHz, 2.2v vcore in an KT7a w/ the +5v mosfet mod & water cooling. I have it next to me now, but it's only running 1.5ghz 2v vcore w/ air-cooling. Good ol' days...
