2 3200+ Whats the difference?

one is labeled as ADA3200BWBOX and the other is labeled ADA3200BPBOX. Same core, same process, same frequency, same cache, both 64bit, both single core, same voltage, same instructions set. Why is the BW model 3 bucks more?....

BW indicates an E6 core stepping while BP indicates an older E3 core.

Unless you plan to overclock, you won't notice any difference between the two.
