XP is T-Bred ???

What is a T-Bred? Are they the same thing as a XP?

Are they being sold now?

Is an XP a Tbred? Yes and No. 'Thouroughbred' is the new .13 micron core of an XP. Athlon XP is just the name that AMD uses to market their processors, so they end up calling two moderately different processors by the same name.. There are two kinds of Tbred as well. The Tbred 'A' & the Tbred 'B'. Tbred A's run hot and don't overclock very well. Tbred B's run cooler and overclock better (although not much)..

Palomino is the core that the lower speed XPs use, but eventually all speeds will move over to the Tbred B core. Currently it looks like this..

XP 2400+ & up = Thouroughbred B
XP 2200+ = Thouroughbred A
XP 2100+ & below = Palomino

Hope this helps.

Everything he said. You can take a look at this review for some more info http://www.hardocp.com/article.html?art=MzA2
It was the first one I found on Google.

StarFoxer has an XP 1600+ Tbred... so not neccessarily all under 2100+ are Palomino cores.

Has that been confirmed? Thread? Pics? I'd think that the 1600+ would be the last Tbred they would release if they didn't discontinue it..
