I do agree perfectly with you, however, SSE3 capability can definitely be queried by checking the presence of flag pni (Prescott New Instructions) in /proc/cpuinfo. AMD cores Sledgehammer (steppings C0, CG) and Clawhammer (stepping CG) do not support SSE3 only cores from San Diego (stepping E4) on. ~C
