    Not at home to double check, but i think all the codes with the "DUT3" are A-cores. I think the B-cores have an "L" in them somewhere in there. Sorry about the vagueness, but I am pretty sure that I am correct. Maybe someone that can double check will chime in.

    Good Luck,
    JM

        See you made me go and search for it :p

        I was a bit mixed up it seems. Hope this helps:

        You can identify which type of TBredB it is by looking at code that begins the second line of coding on the processor. If you see a code like "AIUHB" that begins with the letter "A," that's a high-end TBredB.

        If you see a code like "JIUCB" that begins with the letter "J," that's a low-end TBredB.

        Here's how these codes translate in real life with real chips:

        1700+

        Palominos: If the website you're ordering from shows an order code of AX1700DMT3C, that's a Palomino.

        TBredA: If the website you're ordering from shows an order code of AXDA1700DLT3C, that's a Thoroughbred A.

        TBredB: If the website you're ordering from shows an order code of AXDA1700DUT3C, that's a Thoroughbred B.

        If you see a code like "AIUHB" that begins with the letter "A" on the second line of the processor codes, that's a high-end TBredB.

        If you see a code like "JIUCB" that begins with the letter "J" on the second line of the processor codes, that's a low-end TBredB.

        As of now (1/15/03), all TBredBs sold at this speed are low-end "J" TBredBs.


        Cheers,
        JM :afro:

              200 fsb(from ur descrip)? well i feel cheated now, i tried 166fsb and my computer wouldnt boot.


              mines set at 155fsb x 12.5 with a volcano 9..and i'm too scared to go any higher.. :o

                im sorry im at 2400 with water cooling but did do some testing and ran fine for 3 days at 2100mhz with a volcano 7+
                whats your specs maybe i can help ya with the settings

                  well i tried to go higher.. and i was succesful at 160 x 12.5, but im back at 155 x 12.5.. both show up as xp2600+ anyway.


                  current specs:

                  mobo: MSI k7n2-L (nforce2)
                  memory: [dual channel] corsair ultra low latency (256 x 2) pc2700
                  HSF: volcano 9 @ max rpm (case open)
                  GPU: Radeon 8500
                  CPU: xp1700+ JIUHB (duh:rolleyes: ) @ xp2600+ (1940mhz)
                  cpu voltage: 1.65
                  cpu die temp: 67~69

                  anyhow.. why is it that when i change the multiplier to 13, it shows up as 5?

                    XP 2600+ is rated at 2080ghz not 1940

                      Just an FYI download here. This is a .pdf file from AMD that helps explain the meanings of all those cryptic codes on the first line of the processor. Hope you find it useful. :D
