Just bought a Socket 7 board with a Pentium 233 MMX.
The sales price was cheaper than P&P 😉
Can anyone help to identify this board?
((I am looking for a manual as well))
Building my own PCs since 1991 - for my retro builds it's "no CF-disks, no Floppy emulators, no modern cases etc.", only the real and authentic stuff whenever possible.
Could be this:

Did you try and boot it up? Write down the BIOS ID code and google it. That should give some clues.
1 x PLCC-68 / 2 x PGA132 / 5 x Skt 3 / 9 x Skt 7 / 12 x SS7 / 1 x Skt 8 / 14 x Slot 1 / 5 x Slot A
5 x Skt 370 / 8 x Skt A / 2 x Skt 478 / 2 x Skt 754 / 3 x Skt 939 / 7 x LGA775 / 1 x LGA1155
Current PC: Ryzen 7 5800X3D
Backup PC: Core i7 7700k
99.99% sure it is the PCChips A101 I used in my first ever retro build ages ago.

Look closely at his pictures and yours I'm in agreement.

The board is still on it's way, but I just want to check CPU compatibility.
I've got a matrox m3d in one of my PCs that I like to upgrade, which performance is highly FPU dependent and so I'd like to check what max CPU the board can take.

Thanks, looks like a match, does anyone have a manual for this?

That link to UH19 I found includes the jumper settings, if that's any use:

May be its false-named. I think it should be PC Chips BIM 😎
