How to recognize the core of my Athlon CPU

[ra_v]

Hello.
I have AMD AthlonXP cpu, but I'd like to know the type of core in it. Is
it Palomino or is it Thoroughbred?

The chip is green. Is it any chance to recognize it without using it
(now I have 2200+ and I don't want to switch them on my MB)?

Palomino is pretty near square core, and 1.75V... T'Bred
isn't.
