Stockman: << K6-2-350 selling for $30 more than Celeron-333, and is less performant than the 333. Who does AMD think its fooling by making huge margins on its 350. The poor consumer of course.>> What basis do you make such conclusion? Overclocked CeleronA 333 or CeleronA-333 at 66MHz bus speed? K6-2-350 beats CeleronA-333 in Business Winstone98 under Windows98. Under 3DNOW games K6-2 blows away CeleronA away. K6-2-350 blows away CeleronA in 3D Winbench DirectX 6.0. Like I said many times as better 3DNOW drivers are released K6-2 will get up to 50% improvement in performance. It wouldn't do a damn thing to the CeleronA. processor.org It is too bad that Intel has to double the die size over AMD K6-2 and got to slot1 but yet to achieve AMD 3D performance. For K6-2-350 to be $30 more than CeleronA-333 is dirt cheap. Who does Intel think they are fooling by making huge margins on its PII? The poor consumer of course. Maxwell
