Hexus.net has just (more or less) posted a review of the AMD Thunderbird 1.33GHz CPU (DDR model, to be exact, but it is definitely a T-bird). The Hexus lads (there may be some lasses, but I'm not sure) run the processor up against its competition, have a chat about whether or not AMD will release a Palomino-based chip any time soon (it my not be chat - discussion is possibly more accurate), and generally have a ball (actually, they could have been bored to tears, we don't know). See what truth you can glean from this snippet:

'Currently the AMD CPU range have 2 main memory buses. Firstly there is the DDR platform, which until around a week ago was not viable due to the higher prices (the performance wasn't worth the increase in the cost dept.) The second type is the SDRam, which comes in 1 main flavour PC133. These 2 platforms are strong in there own ways.'
