Opteron Stepping -- anyone care to interpet this one?

[WhipperSnapper]

Is this a good dual core Opteron stepping for a 170?

LCBQE 0722RPAW

It looks like it was produced in 2007, week 22, so presumably most of the bugs would have been worked out.

That's the absolute latest stepping. They're doing alright, about as well as the LCB9E's were, 2.7-2.8 Ghz on average. Of course, as always, some go higher, some won't go that high, and YMMV.
