I suggest you email ECS for the actual part number. I think it's a 1.6GHz
Duron though, since you can buy this cpu/MB combo for about $75, which is
cheaper than just the 2800+ cpu alone at $115. Bad advertisers. I've seen
this combo listed as anythin from 1.6 Duron, 2300+, amd up to 2800+. ECS
website doesn't specify cpu other than it's integrated. I think it's
soldered in w/o a socket so you can't change it. Here's a discription from
a pricewatch add. Note that 2800 is model number of the board, not the
cpu.
ECS L7VMM3 PRO2800 Socket A mboard MFN L7VMM3 PRO2800(ATHLON XP1600+)

Just a guess, but it may be out there with different cpu's on it depending
on availability at time of manufacture. Take a look here.

ECS do say in their documentation that it's a duron at 133/266 fsb..
They dont go on to say what speed it runs at BUT.. I have heard many things
about these boards (and the ilk) and I am fairly sure that they are
overclock'd or nonstandard spec durons..<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
