can anyone enlighten me in the difference between the 3200+ Clawhammer and NewCastle?

What the post above this one says

More specifically

3200+ Clawhammer = 2 GHz / 1 MB cache
3200+ Newcastle = 2.2 GHz / 512 KB cache

Just what the man above said. Also, I believe, the 3200+ Clawhammers are the older CO stepping, and the Newcastle's are the newer CG stepping (newer stepping oc's better and fixes some memory issues). (The only CG Clawhammers I know of are mobile chips.)

That's not true. I have a desktop CG Clawhammer; however, it doesn't exactly overclock well.

Yeah,
my Desktop CG Clawhammer 3000+ is maxed at 10x230FSB. 2300Mhz. Kinda dissappointed.
