They aren't exactly words, rather codes. AROIA is among the last of the Palomino cores I believe, and I think AIUGA is a Thoroughbred "A" core. If this is the case, then the latter will be slightly more overclockable.

I got a 1800 TBred "A" w/ the AIUGA code. Overclocked to 1800 MHz (XP2200+) w/ a Gigabyte GA-7VAXP v1.1 F7 bios (12.5X144). Using the Retail heatsink and getting about 33 deg C. I'll still trying to get to a higher MHz, at least 2000 MHz. :)
