I would say any Rev F processor available to the public (i.e. not early
engineering samples or such) that have a Model of 64(0x40)+, should be
fine. I'm 99% sure that the model number of 67 is the public release,
but it may be higher. I'd be very surprised if it's lower, since that
would not be a "good thing" when it comes to software detecting
features(or bugs) by checking model number vs. some fixed constant.
