Elmer,

Re: Except that Intel will have moved on to a 100mhz bus also and as always, left AMD in the dust. Almost makes you think they planned it that way.

Intel's PII will not recieve as much of a performance increase a by the migration to a 100 mhz bus as will a socket 7 system. The main reason is the PII already has it L2 cache incorporated on the cpu running at 1/2 the processor speed. Socket 7 systems will now see the an increase access speeds of it L2 cache cache by 66% (from 66mhz to 100 mhz). Certianlly the PII will gain some in performance by the increased speeds but not nearly as much as that of socket 7 systems because the L2 cache speed is already been seen by it DIB bus.
