fyodor,

"The PIII will not support L2 cache at 1/3 of the processor frequency. The cache is not really where their problem lies.. it's more a matter of getting the CPU to run at 600MHz in the first place - definitely not an easy task at .25mu (with the P6 core)."

I am not so sure of what you say. Check out a recent report on Anand's site about taking the PIII to 700 MHz. Cache seems to be one of the critical paths.
