gateway 300x p04 info please

Archived from groups: alt.sys.pc-clone.gateway2000 (More info?)

A 2.2 GHz P4 running on a 400 MHz bus would run the RAM at PC2100 speed
(266). A 2.2/533 CPU should run it at 333 MHz.

Intel has released so many iterations of these chipsets, the only real way
to identify them is to visually look at the part number on the board.
