My 1st Pentium 4 (Qualification sample?)

[Sten]

Hi all
Could you please confirm that this cpu is Pentium 4 Qualification Sample 1.8Ghz?
What`s the difference between Qualification and Engineering Sample?
Please advise
Thanks

It is an ES (QFF9ES).

Nice find! (Will add it to the cpu library!)

That should be a Engineering Sample since the s-spec ends with ES. Qualification samples (normaly) ends with QS, but the spec page here at cpu-world states it as a QS so perhaps Genna knows more?

Here is a good thread about the differences: http://www.cpu-world.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1540

This S-Spec was mentioned in a product change notification document on Intel site. The document is no longer on the site, but you can still see it in Google cache:
