Athlon Codes

[geekender]

Where is the best site that will break down the Athlon's codes?

ex: AYHJA, AXIA etc.

here and AnandTech has something that I haven't done yet.

EDIT: Top right look for CPU Database at the linky.

So how do you actually buy a CPU with the certain code that you are looking for. For example, can I go into Fry's and simply ask for an Athlon with the AGOGA core, or what? Also, how do you decifer the overclockers database? I will keep looking but any tips would be appreciated.

Some sites will tell you the code, other don't. At Fry's if you buy an OEM (if they sell them) you can easily see the code, if they sell retail only then more than likely not open a new box to see if you want that code.

But that only tells what will overclock. I want to know what the codes mean.

The codes are like a date / run code. They tell what lot and screening the cpu was made from. Kinda like the # set you see for programs, AKA: version 3.1.13 Not sure how the codes are decipered. ( if a all )
