Hi can some one help me identify what family,core and or bus speed my cpu can handle?
Its a TB 1Gig Athlon but Im not sure what is the bus speed. Is there a way to find out all this information without having to take out the processor.
Here is some specs ... family6 Model4 Stepping 2..I got this from system info.

TB 1ghz come in 2 flavours; 100mhz(x10) and 133mhz(x7.5). What you need is a little program called WCPUID, which is readily available with a google search for the name. I think it will more than solve your problems, and possibly tell you more than you need to know about your system.

Hi thanks all for the tips.
WCPUID tells me its a 100Mhz FSB processor..
This all started cause of my curiousity, I oc'd my cpu to 133fsb and did not seem to damage it. ( I did not unlock the multiplier) So I was wondering that perhaps maybe my cpu supports 133.
