well no he cant fox u untill unless u dun bout the proc as its wirtten in the AMD proc box either its 939soc or 754 with how much cache and all but for u need to know bout dat so go to www.amd.com and look for processer and then Model Number Comparisons.

Athlon.and.XP.are.outdated.<=Older,32bit,proccesors.
FX.and.X2.maybe.to.costly.for.you.<=FX->very.hig-end.gaming.processor,.X2=>Dual.core.processor.
64.is.good.and.cheap.enough.Go.with.it.<=64bit.for.you.

You can see that on the Processor Box itself It is clearly written that What it is , Also You can Note down the OPN number from The Various sites and Check it while Buying That it is the Same one...
OPN number Can really Help...

go here for detailed instructions on using the OPN to idenify the processor specs,

Differnet AMD Open numbers

AP = C0 Clawhammer, s754
AR = CG Clawhammer, s754
AS = CG Clawhammer, s939
AX = CG Newcastle, s754
AW = CG Newcastle, s939
BI = D0 Winchester, s939
BP = E3 Venice, s939
BN = E4 San Diego, s939
BU = E5 Newark, s754
LD = E0 (?) Lancaster, s754
BV = E6, Manchester, s939
CD = E6, Toledo, s939

Check the CPU, in the box U can see it without opening the box, it will be written like A643000BP for 3000+ venice

Firstly, the athlon is not outsated, only the XP line is discontinued,

Secondly whatever "gxsaurav" has posted is a good bit of information but you cannot decide the stepping from the "AW" or "BP" part, he is trying to do that, so just ignore the stepping part and his information is correct.
