Ha, I got the CPU today and it is indeed an Engineering Sample!!! I can select the multiplier upto from 1x to 8x !!! It is a quite old piece of hardware, but it's fun to play around with it, just because it's an ES!!
I know that my current BX-setup can't do 150 MHz FSB stable, but I'll keep the CPU, to test a few other boards for 160 MHz FSB+!! Then if I was able to find such a BX-board that is capeable of these high FSB speeds, I'll run my Celi 1GHz@1,6GHz on it and I'll be a happy camper with my GF4 Ti 4200 in that system. This should be fast enough to last some time.
