Here are several questions that I would like to be answered. If you can answer them it would help a lot. Please do not post if you don't know the exact answer for this. (Which also means don't post something like "It doesn't matter all CPU's are different""), I'm just curious.

 

The first code is this: 

0 = San Jose, Costa Rica

1 = Cavite, Philippines
3 = .............., Costa Rica
6 = Chandler, Arizona
7 = .........., Philippines
8 = Leixlip, Ireland
9 = Penang, Malaysia
L = ............, Malaysia
Q = ..........., Malaysia
R = Manila, Philippines
Y = Leixlip, Ireland

 

1. What is ".............."? Is there a specific place for them? Most CPU's I found are "L", which is from Malaysia, but Costa Rican chips are supposedly binned slightly better, so would it matter if it's from San Jose?

 

2. I've checked out lots of CPU OC databases and could never find "0" or "3", so where can find Costa Rican chips?

 

3. The last 2 (7th and 8th) digits are the location on the wafer. It is recommended to have lower than 15. Is "0" the center of the wafer since it is 'the best'? Shouldn't it be 50 since it's ranging from 0-99?

 

I just found out my 4770K is L343C221. :P So yes @JEman99 they still put it on their boxes.

 

Is there any way @Faa can help me out?
