thought i might be able to determine whether the blank was a 180 or 200 by seeing what maximum speed it could run at and compare to SY012 180 & SY013 200

results as follows

SY012 180 Pro
3.5 x 60 = 210 cold & warm boot
3.5 x 66 = 233 cold & warm boot
4.0 x 60 = 240 cold & warm boot
4.0 x 66 = 266 no boot (cold or warm)

SY013 200 Pro
3.5 x 60 = 210 cold & warm boot
3.5 x 66 = 233 cold & warm boot
4.0 x 60 = 240 cold & warm boot
4.0 x 66 = 266 no boot (cold or warm)

Blank Pro
3.5 x 60 = 210 cold & warm boot
3.5 x 66 = 233 cold & warm boot
4.0 x 60 = 240 cold & warm boot
4.0 x 66 = 266 cold boot & then freeze / no warm boot

what this all tell us.. absolutely nothing Laughing Laughing

Well, it told us that Pros seem to have no problem running at 233 and 240. Have you tried running it for a long time at 233/240?

I've one tried running a Pro 200 1M at 233Mhz and it worked. It did become fairly hot though so you might want to figure out a way to keep it cool. Socket 8 coolers aren't really easy to come by these days.

no problems mate.. was also doing research for myself.. just thought i would share it.

I have never seen, but i wonder if Intel made a University kit containing a blank Pro like they did with the Pentium 1

picked up another blank Pro Smile

by the die FPO code, I suspect this one will be a sB1 stepping with 512k cache

when I finally get it to test it.. I will be able to confirm my guess
but this will still leave 7 sSpec/qSpecs to choose from Laughing

spied it in this lot
