Harvey, I think that's likely, esp. since the first T-bred (.13-um-process) parts didn't have much headroom, so bin splits could have left them with quite a few parts rated at 2100+ and below. If you want to know if some 1600+ parts are actually T-breds in disguise, a glance at the package would tell you; t-bred cores are tiny even compared to Palominos.

Harvey, re: "There was a production run of .18 XP 2200's and a decision was made not to extend the line to that speed so all were marked and sold as XP 1600+."

Why would they have to mark them at the lowest speed? If they were ok for 2200+ but AMD didn't want to release 0.18 2200+ then they should be just fine for 2100+ (etc) and have greater value.

Regardless, it sounds like you got a very nice OC chip.
