Lol, thats pretty funny. I'm pretty sure its a typo, no ones ever mentioned Drillhammer before

lol probobly meant clawhammer D:

Jess1313 · Jul 23, 2004

well it cant be a clawhammer, the die is much to square

here is a clawhammer

and here is one of the "drillhammer"

im still thinking NewCastle

I've never heard of a mobile core called this and if it was any other site, I would dismiss it as a typo too but let's find out:

I think these are 512 KB L2 CG NewCastle as listed in
A64 CPU Models, OPN code, PR/frequency rating

i guess it is possible that it has just slipped under out radar, but that is not very likely.

i think that it is just NewEggs mistake, just a typo, as the others have stated

They corrected it. There's no such thing as 'Drillhammer'.

Yeah pity they did not correct it properly though! One still says drillhammer and the other says Clawhammer - wrong on both counts. As for slipping under the radar - these websites often get it wrong - especially with the new A64 cores. As hitechjb1 points out they are clearly newcastles.

Somebody's not earning their paycheck at newegg.

I'm guessing they'll get it right in the next day or so...

Well I wish they hurry up and get the a64 3200 price right also so I can BUY. But I'am still thinking on waiting for the DFI to be released
