The XP 2700+ was created with the Thoroughbred-B core the biggest news here was the faster FSB of 166/333 and an additional layer over the Thoroughbred-A. The XP 3000+ I have have is the Barton core which has has twice the L2 cache of the Thoroughbred-B. It would appear that Joachim was refering to the Thoroughbred-B 3000+ which as far as I know never hit the streets as the Barton core was released with the larger L2 cache. > > >My personal favorite for chess (non-overclocked XP) would be the 2800+.
