Athlon or T-Bird? How can I tell?

[catfish]

Is it posible to ID whether a AMD 900mhz chip is a vanilla Athlon or a TBird?

[Tasuke [H]]

a socket processor is either a Duron(smaller core) or an athlon.

There are no other 900 Mhz socket AMD processors. If slot, the Cache will tell you which one you have, ans the Athlon had 512KB abd the T-bird had 256KB. The T-bird is faster though due to how the cache was designed.

i thought all socket athlons were based on the tbird core???

only the original slot a processors were the athlon core??
