Newcastle? Winchester?

[Maxil223]

I see that there is:
A64 3200+ Newcastle
A64 3200+ Winchester
A64 3200+ Clawhammer(notebooks only??)

Whats the difference between all these??

A64 3200+:

Newcastle: Newer 0.13u A64, 2.2GHz, 512KB cache, Socket 754 only

Clawhammer: Older 0.13u A64, 2GHz, 1MB cache, Socket 754 only

Winchester: Newest 0.09u A64, 2GHz, 512KB cache, Socket 939 only


IIRC. Intel and AMD CPU specs are confusing as hell now.

I'm a rank newbie with AMD, but when I went shopping recently I'm positive that I saw at least the socket 939 3500+ offered in both cores.

You are right about the 939 3500+ is offered in either Newcastle and Winchester.

But the OP asked about the difference between the three A64 3200s, and the 939 3200+ is only available in Winchester core.
