2500 AQXEA vs 2600 AIUCB

#1 January 16th 04, 04:30 AM

Hey, just had a question, I have the opportunity to get a Barton 2600, and a
Barton 2500. Both would be approximately the same after shipping. The
stepping code on the 2500 would be an AQXEA, but the 2600 is an AIUCB. I've
never heard of the overclockability of the AIUCBs, and am wondering, would I
be better off with the 2500?

Actually guys, nevermind. I looked at the processor model number and the
guy is trying to pawn off a Tbred 2600 as a Barton. I'd rather lose the
processor freq. than FSB and Cache. Thanks anyway.
