Actually i dont really want to trade it. Maybe in 10 years when i can get rich out of it [serious, i dont collect cpus, this was given to me me for ten dollars but hell i'll keep this ]
What does such a thing worth? _________________ -=[My DeviantART Site]=- - -=[P2ODP ES]=- |

Hi guys.
I've bumped into a question. PPro processors' manuf. date mostly comes from the number on the bottom part of the chip and the PPro OD from the back of the chip thus making 692077-001 Week 20/1999.
Now, mine reads 701090-001. Would that be Week 10/2000? Arent ES chips supposed to be older than serial produced ones? _________________ -=[My DeviantART Site]=- - -=[P2ODP ES]=- |

No, sometimes ES's are produced a long time after the production pieces-mainly to improve on their design or to develop another version of the cpu. They would change the steppings etc. But this is just an educated guess.  _________________ http://www.RareCPUs.com

Awesome chip. This is the only production Socket8 processor still missing in my collection. I once nearly had it, but the auction ended because the seller claimed it was destroyed because somthing heavy fell on it.  |

Back to the ES cpu, i've been reading somewhere that some old motherboards did not recognize the ODP-s well and saw only half of the built-in cache. (i.e. 256K). Though mine is an Intel Venus board, it has a really old bios, like ver 1.00.08 and the newest to it is 1.18 or so (?). I wonder if this is the same in the current situation. I'll try to update my BIOS as soon as i get hold of a floppy drive [duh, floppy ] and then i'll update you on what the situation is.
I've updated my bios to a newer version and now the mobo recognizes the cpu properly, its a 512K ES.
off:
I'll install win2k and cpu-z today to see some more details. if anyone interested in benchmarks or stuff then write me asap because i wont be keeping the psu and the housing for a long while. also note that the hd is only 2.5 gbytes
/off

I just won one on eBay, still boxed. It'll be at least a couple of weeks before I get it, it'll be shipped to CPUShack before it gets forwarded to me (he always sees my best chips before I do!!!) _________________ My graphics card database can be found at http://www.gpuzoo.com.

There were times these overdrives in original package were really cheap. I bought 14 of them in USA But there is one large disadvantage: They only support dual-processing  _________________ Frank. |

Would the problem of not recognising all the cache have been an OS problem and not a BIOS problem? What OS did you power it up on? _________________ 4000+ chips.
