A194 and A1060 are studied for the nature of point source properties. X-ray to optical luminosity ratios (Lx/Lb) are evaluated for selected galaxies. Cumulative log(N)-log(S) and intrinsic luminosity functions are applied for a comparative evaluation with Lockman Hole. 46 and 32 X-ray point sources are detected by EPIC-PN, for A194 and A1060 respectively. The XLF space density shows significant excess compared to field and local group space density. The result is interpreted as the fueling of AGNs as they enter the ICM from outskirts of the clusters and dimming of the very bright AGNs as they further proceed into cluster core.
