<What a butt kicking the K63 takes when you see all the benchmarks!!!!>

Those Pentium III vs. K6-III benchmarks on Anand's website pleasantly surprised me. AMD is back down to "not as fast, but good enough for the average person" status.

But to be fair, clock-for-clock K6-3 is better at office applications than any of Intel's CPUs. Also, why did Anand only use 1 MB of L3 cache in his tests? I thought that even AMD is recommending 2 MB for all K6-3 systems in order to maximize performance.
