MSI-6191 and Thunderbird? (AMD)
Posted By Brian Neal

A big thanks to Scott for sending in the link to this post on SI. The post refers to AMD's approved Athlon motherboard list (mirrored here), and in particular, the entry for the MSI-6191 (AMD-750 chipset). If you look under the Recommended Speeds column, you'll notice a number of listings like AMD-K7500, AMD-K7100, etc. for any of the given motherboards. However, listed under the entry for the MSI-6191 is the following:

[...]
AMD-K7900
AMD-K7950
AMD-K7100
AMD-A0650
AMD-A0700
AMD-A0750
AMD-A0800
AMD-A0850
AMD-A0900
AMD-A0950
AMD-A1000

It would seem like the MSI-6191 is the first AMD-approved motherboard for the Slot-A Thunderbird. More so, it indicates that the company may be releasing speed grades all the way from 650 MHz to 1000 MHz. Is this an indication of what's to come next Monday?

That means we have 4 missing speed grades! What are they?
