go into bios and check what the multiplier is at and figure out what the fsb is at... if its 12x, then is 200, if its 9x then its 266


i dont think 266fsb was released until 2000 though

Here ya go...

Thought I could find out from this page... but that last letter "C" totally baffles me, "A" is for 200, "B" is for 266, and "C"... well I don't know...

A=forgot
1200=cpu speed
A=256 K L2
M=1,75 V
3=forgot
C=133 FSB /or 266 if you prefer

sorry if i got this mixed up or wrong in any way..
if i'm wrong please somebody correct me.....

but the "C" is a definite proof of 133 FSB
the 100 (or 200)FSB Athlon would have "B" codes

You had it RONtype1 you just needed to look alittle closer ;) The data for his CPU translates to Socket A, 1200mhz, PGA, 1.75v, case temp 90 Celsius,L2 cache 256kb, max fsb=266mhz.This data is in section 11(ordering information) of the AMD technical reference PDF manual.BTW, the link you provided shows both A&B as 200mhz, It was still a good catch though :)
