Kevin - Re: "Are you serious? K7 has 128k L1 cache on chip--faster than the L2 that K6-3 has on chip. K7 will have FAST off chip L2--running at the same speed (if not multiplier) as the current PII cache SRAMs! And the PII, even thus "handicapped" versus the K6-3, is still pretty close in performance, without the K7's other advantages. " I wouldn't bet on this Kevin. AMD is going to have some tough "positioning" with the K7 - assuming the K6-3 is out in the marketplace first. I wouldn't be surprised if AMD pulled the K7 - until they can get it redesigned on the 0.18 micron process with on-chip L2 cache. No, I wouldn't be surprised at all. And AMD is real good at surprises ! Paul
