Athlon XP-M 3000+

[brtspears2]

I have two CPU's here, XP-M 2800+ and XP-M 3000+. The 2800+ shows up as a barton core, 2.133GHz. But with the XP-M 3000+, it shows up as an A64 Clawhammer with a speed of 1.6GHz. Is this right? I would think the 3000+ would be 2.2GHz.

Funny thing is that on SiSandra and other benchmarks, the 2800+ can beat the 3000+ with usually a 10% margin.

Is the "Clawhammer" possibly in a laptop?

I think 1.6Ghz is correct for the XP-M and I think it is a clawhammer.

Yes it is in a laptop. But why would it be slower than a XP-M 2800+ ?

Only the mhz is slower. Performance is actually a bit faster.

Bingo, it's an Athlon 64 with NX and 64-bit capability turned off.
