What does that mean? Somewhere on here I read that certain c2d's would O/C better based on when it was made.

Although I don't know how to figure out WHEN your processor was made, I just know that...

(Now, I'm not totally sure about this but...)

The later they are made, the better stepping they have and (therefore) the better OC you get.

Well one of the more recent steppings had problems. Don't remember which one though.

Looking at the L631, this is 2006, week 31.
