Scumbria,
RE: "With the introduction of K6-3, bus speed will become a non-issue
on socket 7 as well. The presence of a large onboard L2 will
reduce CPU to dram traffic by at least 90%, making bus speed
much less important. This should also hold true for future C6
chips with 128K L1."

Just what IS the advantage of 100 MHz Ram on a Slot 1 set up? Why is Intel bothering with it. Is this another sucker play by Intel to get us to by a BX motherboard? First MMX and now this.
