The best stepping yet, especially with a letter Y on the third line.
Can you write down the numbers after AGKGAXXXXXXXX. I want to know what weeks are other people's athlon xp manufactured. Thanks

So, you got a AGKGA-A, It may not be better than Y, but should be better than some starting with a number 9. Your Athon XP is from week 33. The AXP1800 I have is a AGKGA-Y week 40, I just got the replacement like ten minutes ago and the one I have before is a AGKGA-Y week 39. The only way to find out how good your cpu is test out, sometime early cpu overclocks better than a later one.

well, the AMD ATHLON isn't the code and doesn't count from there, The AX1600... is the first line which most of people refer to. The AGKGA-A is the stepping and what is follow by the AGKGA (0133MPM) is the week. Are you sure that read as a "O" and not 0?

Here's mine,

How about the first column on the third line, Some people get a letter and some just start out with a number and no letter at all.

You are correct, its a Zero (0) not an "O"

I scanned the core, but I cant put it on this site, I dont know how.

Very close, stepping is AGKGA-4 and the rest, bullseye.

:p I want an AGKGA-Y

AX1600 MT3C
AGKGA 0136UPDW
97224550033 (emphasis added)

Can't say how it OCs, but it runs about 10°C cooler than my equivalent TBird. I know that there's a picture somewhere that explains what all of the letters mean. I'll try to find it.

As I've said to you before, lose the Caps lock.

You have an AXIA-Y CPU. Those are among the BEST overclockers out there. You got very lucky.
