Determining Speed of G4 Quicksilver

There is an eBay listing located near me geographically selling a couple of G4 Quicksilvers. They haven't been powered up and they don't have a drive so there being sold as spares, the price is appropriate for this. I am curious to find out what the clock speed of them are but the seller doesn't know as obviously they can't turn on because no power lead.

is it likely to be printed on the machine anywhere, or does the heat sink layout of the crappy quality pic below give any hints?

Ask for the serial numbers and look them up, or have the guy look up the specs printed on the back on the unit next to the power in plug.

Good to hear the specs are on the back, I knew the model number was but they all have the same. Thanks

80% of the Quciksilvers I have come across are 800MHZ. That heatsink design was used on the 800 and 867MHZ models.

That looks like a 733mhz to me, but it could be any lower end SP model.

BTW, my experience is opposite the above poster-I've seen, handled, and owned a LOT of Quicksilvers and the majority are 733s.
