Tom's review of Cyrix III: www6.tomshardware.com This chip really sucks. It may be even worse than Cyrix MII if it ran at 400 MHz. The road map looks poor too: Doug told us that Via is planning to shrink the Cyrix III from the current 0.18 micron process to a 0.15 micron process in order to introduce PR566 and PR600 chips in Q1, 2001. ...The Samuel, designed by the IDT team, will arrive in late Q2 to early Q3 and should be available from 500 to 600 MHz this year. "Ezra" is the next generation processor after Samuel and should arrive in the first half of 2001. Ezra is being developed jointly by the Cyrix and IDT teams. Doug mentioned that both SSE and 3DNow! are being considered for the Ezra as well as both Socket 370 and Socket A, the socket architecture used by AMD's Spitfire. Joe
