Remarked AMD CPU?

I purchased an AMD Thunderbird 1.4 Ghz CPU this week and have had no problems running it at 1.5 Ghz. I was just poking around with SiSoft Sandra and noticed that the Processor / Model Information under CPU and BIOS Information reports:

Athlon (Thunderbird) 650-1.33G 1.7-1.8v

A friend's 1.2 Ghz Thunderbird reports '650-1.2G'.

Would some of you 1.4 Ghz owners check yours and see if they also report '650-1.33G' like mine? I hope I didn't get a remarked CPU.

Thanks

I haven't gotten my 1.4 however it is most likely because of the cpuid database in sandra, I know a new version just came out today so you could try that...

It's nothing to worry about, that's just the information Sandra is drawing from it's database. It hasnt been updated to reflect the 1.4GHz Athlon availability.
