According to this website:
http://www.paradicesoftware.com/specs/cpuid/index.htm
It is Athlon 64, that is what the CPU Family 15 = Extended, Model 4
(Athlon 4). If it was a Model 8 it would be an Opteron

I also have an Athlon XP Barton which is Family 6, Model 10 which
coincides with the table.

The thing it doesn't mention on the table is the XP-M processors. I
wonder what their settings are>?
