RDM,

The K6-3 must cost at least 50% more than the K6-2 to produce and the market will not pay a higher price for the K6-3 unless it outperforms the K6-2

The principal advantage of K6-3 is that it allows an OEM to ship a system without an external L2. When Intel drops Slot 1 next year and moves to a lower cost package, AMD will need an onboard L2 to be competitive against Dixon systems. K6-3 will have to replace K6-2 at the same pricepoint.
