Finding Processor Speed

    i have a p4 chip, but no working motherboard and i am not really sure of the speed. i got it from a Packard Bell iMedia 5106 whose spec is 1.5GHz, but the motherboard is a socket 478 rather than 423. could this be right. i originally thought it was 2.4GHz but i'm not sure why i thought this.

    is there any way to confirm the processor speed without a working mobo?

    thanks

    I thought cpu-z should be able to show you that.

    I'm lost to what you are tring to say. I know master of the realm is looking for an AMD version but i havent come across one! He posted after i gave the link for the intel site ?

    i was referring to mac daddys post above, he was referring to using cpuz but the OP cant as he has no working mobo. The OP wanted a list for AMD cpus like the one you posted for intel's
