---Stepping Explanation---

[shadowdr]

I think there may be somthing to the letters as well.i had a 2100 aiuhb 0302 tpfw.it would only go 2000 mhz.it may be a code like the letters or numbers that followed the steppings on the t-birds.if thats the case tpfw is not a good one.

regarding the J, it seems that they are less overclockable (probably, because they have been bined for low speed after testing)

I just got home with a new retail 1800 tbred. Codes are as follows
AXDA1800DLT3C
RIUGA 0250UPMW

So from what I have read this is not a tbred "B". Oh well. Has anyone seen this stepping? I wonder how its going to OC. I'm about to tear apart my rig to stuff it in. oopps better go back to the unlocking thread first. I'll post my oc results here.

I just got the 2100+ AXDA2100DUT3C AIUHB 0301MPMW

what's with the "Y" "9"... where can i find it?

Can the images in the thread starting post be uploaded to someone's hosting instead of theforumisdown, as they have deleted the pics?

 

[dropadrop]

You can pm me and I can host the images.

 

[I.M.O.G.]

Contact Starfoxer then and ask if he has the images to email to you or if he has a better source of hosting. Thanks for the offer.

Well, it's a 1.65 volt processor. I couldn't find anything about AXDZ, I think the Z refers to max power or something, but I don't know how different it is from A. My first thought was maybe a mobile processor, but they are usually 1.5 volt.

Thanks for this great info.

why is it not a sticky?

holy thread reviving batman

or whatever ppl say

 

[drewmister]

wow!

that really helps.. i knew about stepping but i guess i didn't really know what stepping meant... meaning i new about the batches that the cpu/processors are made in and the numbers but i did not know that stepping was the proper terminology for that... thanx alot!

definately should be a sticky
