Chas,

Here are some comments on the Slot 2 Processor with the 450NX chipset. Slot 2 will only come with 100MHZ bus...but I will look elswhere to see if someone can be more specific.

Slot 2
Looking a couple of more months down the road and into June/July this year, we can expect Intel's new Slot 2 CPUs to be launched. These CPUs include a L2 cache that runs at CPU clock speed, the cartridge these CPUs come in is huge, easily double the height of current Pentium II SECs. The Slot 2 CPUs will offer an amazing performance increase over Slot1, but they will be targeted only to the high end market like servers and high end workstations. The main chipset for these high end CPUs will be the 450NX chipset and you can see how strong Intel believes in the high end nature of this product when asking Taiwanese motherboard manufacturers about Slot 2 boards. Most of these motherboard manufacturers won't even make these boards, because they say that they haven't got the right kind of customers for these products. It's interesting though, that Slot 2 CPUs will also work with the BX chipset. Slot 2 will only come with 100 MHz front side bus.
