Scumbria - Re: "I have heard that Intel CPU's with full speed caches do not show much performance improvement over their half speed counterparts, for desktop benchmarks." Available benchmarks - try Tom Uberclockermeister - show that the Mendocino - a 128 K full CPU speed L2 Cache Celeron - performs almost as good as a Pentium II with 512K half-CPU speed L2 cache, when the Mendocino and Pentium II are clocked at the same speeds. Conclusion - SMALL FULL SPEED caches can provide enough performance as a half speed cache FOUR TIMES the size ! Paul
