The chip is identified on its top or bottom with a number. At the end or
close to it, the speed is identified. The year of its manufacture can be a
clue, too. If it's 1993, for example, it could be a Pentium 60, 75, 90.
If 1996, Pentium 133 maybe, or 166. Publicize the numbers on the chips top
or bottom, and we can dial it in for you.
