Could anyone help me to identify these CPU.
It doesn't have any markings on top.
Only on the bottom side it has these markings: 1995 Cyrix USA G5D7603A

Should be P80 or P90 (which is the same thing).

Is there any way to check it??
Motherboards from that time have jumpers and user have to manually set the CPU frequency.

First ones are tough to overclock and it can be used to determine it.
If it is stable as 40x2 but unstable as 66x2 then most likely P80 or 90, otherwise P166.
