my friend gave me this P4 chip which was taken from his Dell.

The inscriptions on the chip says as follow,

2A Ghz/512/1.5V
SL5YR Costa Rica
3211A595-1530

How overclockable do you think this chip is? I don't have an Intel mobo.. so I cannot really test it out. And what's a good motherboard to couple with this CPU? I have an extra pair of BH-5 (Mushkin 2 x 512MB)

Thanks,

I would bet 3.2-3.4Ghz with good aircooling.

It's a B0, might not get much more than 3ghz with it. GL
