Dear John:

Re: Bandwidth testing

The best test would be a K6-3 at 66 MHz on a Super 7 motherboard with SDRAM CAS2 and the same clock K6-3 (remember K6-3 multipliers are unlocked) at 100 MHz with SDRAM CAS3. Both would have the same chipset, latency (133 ns), and CPU but the test at 100 MHz would have 50% more bandwidth. All parameters given are normal (no over or under clocking) for a given system. Any increase in speed (1 - runtime@66/runtime@100) would strictly be bandwidth related. Doubling the increase would be a good rule of thumb for the DDR transition.

Pete

PS: The K6-3 has the same size L2 (256K) as well.
