No such thing as an AMD 3.2ghz in any form so id say he means 3200+
Thanks. I thought something fishy was going on. Sounded a bit unrealistic.

I see many PCs on sale that lie blatantly about the Speed. The AMD ratings are closer to misleading rather than a lie, but many times you hear about a dual core Pentium, thats say, 2.6Ghx and they tell you its a 5.2Ghz. I think thats a lie rather than just misleading, because I have seen some believeable systems being sold... Such as 3.6Ghz dual core turning out in fact to be 1.8Ghz, which these days isnt worth wiping the poo off your show for.
Its probably that your friend has read the rating but taken it as the true clock speed.

Eh?
According to this:

There is no socket 754 3800+ and I've never seen or heard of one either, linky?

No, the 3800 is 939
He asked about the 754
Which is the ClawHammer 3700 @ 2.4Ghz & 1MB Cache.
I always took the AMD cpu description i.e 3800 to be relative to a P4's performance i.e 3.8ghz. This is down to the way each cpu is made. It would otherwise be difficult for AMD to sell a 2.4ghz chip as '2.4' when compared to a pentium 3.8 hence the 3800/4000 descriptions.
