Northwood CPU always has 512KB Cache, right?

I want to get a P4 1.6a and I've found a good price on one but the item description does not state "1.6a", just 1.6. However, the description states that it has 512KB cache versus 256KB so that means it is a Northwood doesn't it?

Thanks!
 
Yes, that's correct. There's alot of P4-1.6 chips out there with the old 256 cache. The Northwood's all come with 512 cache (better for overclocking) P4-1.6a, 1.8a, 2.0a all 512 cache.
