Sorry if this is a dumb question, but how do I know what version of the Q6600 I just received from Newegg?

Mine says, Prod code: BX80562Q6600, S-SPEC: SLACR

I've hear the version with "Go" stepping is more overclockable and runs cooler.

I did a search and couldn't find the answer.

Thanks!

SLACR = G0 stepping.
