Athlon XP 3100+?

[dextrous]

Tiger Direct is advertising an Athlon XP 3100+. Has anyone heard of this cpu before or you think its just a misnamed Sempron?

EDIT: well it can't be a sempron because the board is an asus A7V8X-LA (socket A) according to HP - http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?product=436100&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&docname=c00069442

The FSB is 200MHz so they must mean its a 3200+ if it is an Athlon XP.

Google seems to think that there is, all of the Pavilion A742Xs are comming up with 3100+.

Perhaps another one of AMD's silent launches? I thought that there were going to be no more new Athlon XP's and only Semprons for socket A?

According to that, the Athlon XP 3100+ is a 400 FSB TBred-B (256kb L2) at 2.2GHz.

Launched October 2004. SO... it's basically a 3200+ Barton with half the L2 cache.

IIRC it was supposed to be OEM only.
