other then the added cache, any differences in archetechure that might differ the newcastle/winchester from the clawhammer? and wuts up with the sledgehammers?
Unfortunately, the Hammer are usually clocked 200Mhz slower than non-hammers at the same PR and the cache doesn't make up the difference in clock speed...
Haven't looked a the Sledgehammer/Clawhammer cores much so I can't tell you the differences....
