Allright, I have no idea what a EB or just E stand for or whats the difference.

I basically want to get a P3 700 FC-PGA Flip Chip Socket 370, FSB of 133, since my Mobo supports it.
(Asus Cusl2-C and my Crucial Ram is PC-133)

Can anyone please tell me which is better?
And no I dont want any AMD chips, after all this questions is in the Intel CPU forum :)

EB signifies that the processor is a FlipChip and is 133MHz FSB.

E = FlipChip (Socket370)
B = 133MHz FSB

Exiler, if I were you, I'd get the 700E (100 bus speed version) and then try to run 133 fsb for 933 MHz, that's what overclocking is all about. Actually, I have a P-III 700 on the way as we type.

Oh yeah. Straight to the 700e coppermine and good cooling to 933+ ! No wrong.
