Cringe - Re: " Can you ask the Market for me what speed the K7 will be released at? "

The Market doesn't care !

What if the K7 zips along at 800 MHz ?

The cache speed will be too slow - since it requires off chip L2 cache.

Further - where are the customers?

Do customers want to buy K7 chips from AMD AND chip sets and take DOUBLE THE RISK of an AMD delivery screw up?
