A VIA C3 would be my guess snipped from
http://www.via.com.tw/en/viac3/c3E.jsp :

Functionally compatible with the standard CPGA version of the VIA C3T
processor, the VIA C3T E-Series is available at speeds of up to 933MHz -
allowing system designers to deliver cool levels of performance while
continuing to leverage the unrivaled flexibility and software compatibility
of the industry standard x86 architecture. The processor also comes with up
to 192KB integrated Level 1 and Level 2 full speed cache, as well as support
for 100/133MHz Front Side Bus, and MMXT and 3DNow!T to further boost system
responsiveness
