It probably will say on the processor, if it is a socket processor it should be engraved on the heat transfer plate on top of the cpu (forgot the real name for that part) while if it is a slot processor it should say on top of the heatsink in a form something like 800/256/133 where the first # is the processor speed, second is the cache, and third is the front side bus speed (probably 66 or maybe 100 in your case).
Please dont take this the wrong way but...
Are you really sure you want to stay with a Celeron?
Since you are already buying a new mb why not look at some of the alternatives...

The heat transfer plate is officially known as an Integrated Heat Spreader.
There is no such thing as socket 457. Celerons come in slot 1, socket 370 (a few different variants in here!), socket 478 and socket 775.
