| Got this in an auction lot of odds and ends. Searching on the numbers etc on top and bottom turned up nothing. |

many 800 bus 604 boards were never made to take the 135W TDP, so be careful what you choose

135 watts?! Ouch. I'd have to duct a leaf blower into the case to cool that. 
I bet it runs pretty good at that speed. What does it have for cache? |

4MB L2 cache, 2MB per core.
You can deduct it from the part number  |

Some quick searching, looks like it's not likely I'd find a board with a PCIe x16 slot that can support this CPU.
If there's a single socket board out there that can support this CPU, and has a PCIe x16 slot... Probably better off getting something newer unless I can find such a board for next to nothing. But hey, it's a dual core engineering sample Xeon. Not everyone has one of those.
I'm assuming DDR2 RAM support at best? |

The CPU is a Xeon MP - designed for 4 socket servers and higher. I don't think you will find a single or dual motherboard that will support it. It is a rubbish performer anyway - Netburst core. It does not have a memory controller built in, so it could support DDR or DDR2 ECC Reg.
It will be about the same speed as a Pentium D - the must basic Celeron from today would run rings around it. |
