I have an AMD x2 3800+ and cpuz identifies it as a manchester with a jh-e6 revision although it does report 90nm.

Is it a toledo or manchester?

It was a Toledo but got half it's cache disabled, so it became a Manchester. A Toledo is an X2 with 1MB cache, a Manchester is an X2 with 512K cache.

So its considered a toledo core then?

It's an E6 Manchester. Manchester and Toledo are just names that AMD gives the X2s, so any X2 with 512K/core cache is a Manchester, and any X2 with 1MB/core cache is a Toledo. E6 means that the CPU was made with 1MB cache/core but that was cut in half for whatever reason.

EDIT: Some people call E6 X2 3800s Toledos (or cache-disabled Toledos) but I won't, since I'm a bit anal about using proper terms for things.

E4 X2s = Manchester
E6 X2s = Toledo
