[G4] QuickSilver or QuickSilver 2002?

My new G4 was billed as a QuickSilver (eBay item #110004450795 if you're 
curious).  Checking Apple's site I saw that I'd be getting a GeForce or 
a Radeon video card; a step up from my GigE's Rage 128 Pro.  When it 
arrived, though, it had a Rage 128 Pro inside.  It also has a single 
800MHz CPU.  The CPU suggests that it's a QuickSilver 2002, but it 
wasn't sold as a 2002, and there's no guarantee that it's even the 
original CPU.  So, how do I tell the difference between a QS and a QS2002?

I haven't even plugged it in yet to see if it boots, though...
