Jim, Re: Cost vs performance

If your only 3D application is 3D Winbench 98, you
are correct.

Now if you are running Quake II(which seems to be
the best 3DNow! optimized game), K6-2-300 is on par
with PII 300(within 1-2% difference).

K6-2-300 is priced at 281(I don't compare street price
but published ones from AMD and Intel) and by June
7, PII 300 will be 320 which would go further to 210
by end of June/July(according to Tom's road map).

So what is the advantage of K6-2 here ?
