    I have Turion TL-60 in front of me and according to Wiki, they come in two flavours: 90nm and 65nm.

    It's serial(?) number is TMDTL60HAXSDM

    How can I verify which architecture size is it sporting?

    If I can add:

    Is there a way to know the core revision number from an AMD identification number/tag?

    I've a TL60. I don't know if it's a 31w or 35w and I don't have a laptop to test it.

    It's ID number is <s>TMDTL60HAX50M</s> TMDTL60HAX5DM.

    I might add to other TL-60 numbers I know:

    TMDTL60HAX5CT 90nm
    TMDTL60HAX5DC 65nm

    But my Turion's no. is still inconclusive.

    more degging:
    TMDTL60HAX5CT 90nm / Trinidad core / DTP 35W / Core stepping F2

    TMDTL60HAX5DM 65nm / Tyler core / DTP 35W / Core stepping G2
    TMDTL60HAX5DC 65nm / Tyler core / DTP 31W / Core stepping G1

    It's a bit weired that a G2 stepping run hotter than a G1 stepping ?!

    Are you sure it's TMDTL60HAXSDM and not TMDTL60HAX5DM like mine?
