All MII with the same CPUID / register values are the same. There is no PR433 core, just cores that are capable of that speed, some of which were marketed as such. You could just as well call them PR300 cores.
(people know it easily by saying that, like you could say k6-3+ core and people would know you mean the 18nm mobile core)
You don’t happen to know the process size or the code name do you? Because I can find only conflicting reports about the cyrix line.
Fun fact btw. As these cores got faster they actually lost performance per clock.
If you ran a 2.2v 433gp core and a 2.9v 300gp both at 300gp speeds, the 2.9v one is faster per clock. Fun fact. But the higher clocks the 2.2v core is capable of more than makes up for it. Making it much faster at max clock vs max clock.
