Athlon CPU identifier utility...

[Brk]

I remember seeing a utility at one of the overclocking websites that you type in all the numbers and letters on your AMD CPU and it will decipher it all for you, but I can't find it now. Can anyone point me to it?

AMDs are overclocked from factory. So AMD just did a overhaul becuase they were making the chips too hot. So they bumped down the numbers on most of the chips. Like...they took the 2600 chip and changed it around to be a 2400 chip so it wouldn't be so hot.

Intels are underclocked BTW. :)

Untrue. The CPU Burke bought did not meet specs as a 2600, so AMD simply downgraded it to a speed which it did meet the specs, 2400.

It wasn't overclocked. It just couldn't cut the mustard as a 2600.
