There is a review of the CPU here:
http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/cpu/display/sempron-2600.html


Some excerpts:

Page 1: "without changing the platform, this CPU can be anytime replaced with a
high-performance Athlon 64 processor with a rating up to 3700+. Upgradeability is a
definite plus of any platform."

Page 2: "The main distinguishing trait of the new Semprons for Socket 754 is that they are
all based on the new core, called Palermo. The Palermo is a derivative from the Winchester
core, with a reduced L2 cache and *disabled AMD64 technology*."

"The Semprons *don¡¦t also support the 64-bit extensions*, but do support the NX bit."
