I’ve reached out to the seller to ask.@Skud - IMV/most likely either just a typo by reseller or it has defective cores which were disabled as a result. It might be better to contact seller with this question to clarify the situation. Intel clearly describes it as 24c
I was trying communicate with the seller offering cheaper version from your links about a different CPU several months ago and despite some strange English/Chinese translation on their end sometimes could get relevant replies.
I wonder if this is the result of a market strategy change? Maybe originally the 3345 was supposed to be 20c with 3.2ghz base but was changed at the last minute to 24? Maybe these are those super early units?
I can’t think of any other reason both models would identify as a 3345.
