The CPU was running at 11 * 166.67 ( 1833mhz ) but they were able to get it running at 12.5 * 185.87 ( 2323mhz ). No info of what PR rating it's supposed to have.

Weren't all AMD cpus supposed to be in a green color ? Is it only the boxed versions that are green ?

Why does that chip say "1999"? LoL

My XP2100+ is brown. But my XP1700+ is green...Plus my burned out 1900+ too.

My XP2100+ also says 1999...

Is that a bigger core or a heat spreader?

Is that the year the name "Athlon" was created? If so then its a copyright on the Athlon name, 1999.

The core is about 15 / 20% longer. It should help with cooling but the extra transistors for the bigger L2 cache will surely compensate for it.
