Hi
I seem to have made a mistake when buying my cpu. I wanted an athlon 3000 NEWCASTLE, but what I have is athlon 3000 CLAWHAMMER.
The clawhammer has an L2 cache 512kb, which is the same as the Newcastle.
The question is am I losing out in any way by having the Clawhammer?
 
by the looks of things no, the newcastle does have NX over the clawhammer whatever that is
 
The truth is, ClawHammer and Newcastle only has the difference of an NX. Same as what Me__2001 said. The NX doesn't do much of a difference. Don't ask what NX is though, silly =P. Some type of an acronym AMD was hoping people would like becuase of its sound and would upgrade the Clawhammer 3000 to a 3000 Newcastle. If you did purchase a newcastle, you would only get like a 2 fps max difference in gaming. Nothing in work or design
