They are kinda like a serial number, decoding them can tell you info like when it was made, what voltage is stock, cache size...etc.

Hardcore Oerclockers know that certain batches will OC better than others, that's why you might say "CABNE is way better than CABGE" when talking about socket 939 Opterons

Seems to remind me of that quote from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

"Nothing goes better with cabbage than cabbage."
