Elmer, Re: "Where is that 700Mhz screaming core and the 200Mhz memory? Any thoughts?" Obviously, the K7 is being "forced" into AMD's .25um process or their slightly upgraded "aluminum .18um" process. Neither of these processes will be able to support a 700mhz "screaming core" or 200mhz memory. What AMD needs is a true .18um process like what Intel is going to release by about mid-year. Please see my earlier post for technical details --> Message 6766898 Without FET's with high drive currents (940ua/um N, 420ua/um P), Low K dielectrics, ... AMD doesn't stand a chance at keeping up in the "Mhz race" (tm Yousef). Make It So, Yousef
