What MHz do you think the PII will top out by the end of 1998, 450 or 500?

Have any of you Silicon Valley folks heard anything about debut speeds of the K6-3D? What do you think are the probabilities of debuting at 300 & 350MHz. Hopefully, when adding the 3D instructions, AMD also resynthesized and laid-out the long paths. What do you think are the odds of the achieving 450MHz on the K6-3D or K6-3D+ by the end of the year.

My concern is that if Intel has moved up the Celeron2 launch to June, they will have a low cost processor in the same performance range as the K6. This will put a cap on what AMD can charge for their processors; unless they can up the MHz to the point where it will cause Intel a lot of pain to raise the the Celeron MHz (by eating into their high end PII sales).
