I have a chip here and I have no idea what I am looking at. I scored a freebie box and was told it was an AMD, when I stripped it, SURPRISE. I know enough to be dangerous with AMD stuff, but when it comes to the other side of things.....

Here are the numbers on the chip:
INTEL '01 PHILLIPPINES
1400/256/100/1.5

7216A674-0469
CELERON SL64V

I am just curious if it is worth screwing with or not. It came out of an E-Machines box that was a MB casualty (on-board video crapped out) But I got some RAM and a few other goodies out of it. Also what would be a cheap/decent board that would work with it for a cheapy internet box.

Thanks

What you have is a Tualatin core Celeron rated at 1.4 GHz with 256K L2 cache. The Tualatin core is a PIII core with a 100MHz FSB. It's made on a 130nm process and runs at 1.5V natively. If you want to, you might be able to OC it a bit by attempting to bump the FSB to 133 MHz...these chips were known to be good OCers since they had higher multipliers than their PIII Tualatin counterparts (100MHz FSB vs 133 in PIII) and were made on a 130nm process compared to the 180nm process of Coppermine PIIIs and Willamette P4s.
