Kevin - Re: "That is why K6+3D, presumably due out shortly after the 350/400 mhz Deschutes, will feature on chip L2 cache running at processor clock speed." Yes - that is AMD's objective - and Intel's as well (Mendocino). One difference is that Intel will announce and ship 350/400 MHz Deschutes/Pentium II's in the next few months. AMD, on the other hand, has only sampled 266 MHz K6's from their R & D line. Thus, they will limit themselves by not being able to match the clock speed of their competitor. The K6 +3D will also be a bigger die - I recollect 130+ sq. mm. And AMD is having severe yield problems. Increasing their die size is also going to work against them. Paul
