RE:"Jim the 1.3 and 1.33 are a new stepping of TBird. Maybe Andreas can clarify whether 1.30 GHz (non "C") are actually a different stepping. I think WCPUID displays stepping information. /Petz"

That's good enough for the desktop right now. All we need is
a notebook chip with PowerNow. I guess SMP is too much to ask for for a few more months.

Petz, Re: Maybe Andreas can clarify whether 1.30 GHz (non "C") are actually a different stepping.

Yes, I had one here for testing and they are the same stepping like the 1.33 GHz Athlons and the new 1.2 GHz ones. The 12.5 multiplier is automatically remapped to 13, so it can be used with older motherboards which only support 100 MHz FSB.
