Hello all. I have a quick question. What is the difference between a production processor and a Non-production processor (ES - Enginering Sample)? I just had a custom system built by Velocity Micro and all tests done on the Processor indicate that I have a non-production processor. I have used Intel's Frequency ID program and Sandra SiS utilities. Both of which informed me that I have a non-production processor. Is this a bad thing, will this become a problem in the future? Right now the system works perfectly.
