Gene - Re: "AMD K6/300 3D 30% faster than PII 300" The AMD 300 MHz machine ran at 100 MHz clock speed and, presumably, using 100+ MHz SDRAM. The Intel machine ran at 66 MHz - since Intel isn't shipping the 440BX chip yet. This alone is a 33% advantage for the AMD machine. Also, the amount of main memory was not specified - AMD likes to use 64 Meg DRAM in AMD machines and compare them to Intel machines with HALF that mempry (32 Meg) as well as using a graphics card with reduced (memory) performance - as they will be demonstrating in their "Face Off" against Intel after Thanksgiving. Remember - AMD demonstrated a 266 MHz K6 on APril 2, 1997 at the K6 launch - and they are STILL NOT IN PRODUCTION on this part. Paul
