nus - The K6-3 is going to be a "Hot Number"

Looks like the power requirements may be tricky - I wonder why?

Powerleap Update - 02/21 05:30 PM - Michael Andrawes

I spoke with Powerleap regarding the inclusion of an overclocked K6-2 processor in our evaluation unit and they assured us that it was a simple mistake and that they do not sell anything that is overclocked to the public. I've updated the review with that info.

"They also mentioned a couple interesting products they're working on. The first is a K6-3 400 upgrade. While the current adapter should be able to handle a K6-3, they're reworking it just a bit to insure that the voltage regulator can supply sufficient current for the K6-3. The other thing they mentioned is an upgrade for Pentium Pro systems based on a Celeron 433 or 466 PPGA CPU. This is of course intended to compete with the PPro Overdrive. This kit would give higher clock speeds, but less cache.

As always, we'll keep you updated with any other information we hear. For now, it's back to that history research paper. "
