as the topic says. Whats the difference? the later vesion more able to over clock? also how do I tell if the CPU I am about to purchase is an AXIA model.

apparently the old B type axia's do a little better in the overclocking stakes. although i just got myself a C type 1gig axia and its done well for itself going straight to 1330 (140x9.5), rock solid running folding all day today.

so dont be afraid to get a type C as they do quite well regardless, i had it up to 1400 and it was relatively stable, crashed out after a few hrs though.. might need to do something about the air flow but yeah.

oh and to tell if its an axia, look on the chip's core.. i think its the third line, the first 4 letters there should read A X I A

The B models are 100mhz FSB (w/ 200mhz internal bus)...
And the C models are 133mhz FSB (w/ 266mhz Internal Bus)...

And it wil lhave "AXIA" printed on the chip if its an Axia
