Decoding CPU stepping (9900K)

Hi all,

 

Potentially a dumb question but how do I work out from the cpu what stepping or age of the cpu from the code on the top?

 

Example:

Monitor: Alienware AW2518HF CPU: 9900K @ 5.1GHz Heatsink: 2x360MM Custom Loop GPU: MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Ti GAMING X TRIO RAM: Patriot Viper Steel DDR4 2x8GB 4400Mhz Mobo: Asus Maximus XI Gene Case: Fractal Design Meshify S2 PSU: Corsair RM1000x Storage: Seagate Firecuda 510 2TB M.2, Adata XPG SX8200 PRO 256GB M.2

Ahh so you have to search the code behind the base clock on the CPU, so the above is a P0 stepping, thanks!
