Charles 28 out of 92 days = 0.30434782608695652173913043478261 if you want to get technical. And my AMD processor did the math on that one! LOL

So it's not quite 0.333333333333333333333333333333333333333 yet.

<font color=darkgreen>AMD 266MHz CPU Pricing

ixbt-labs.com

We got some info concerning the new official prices on AMD CPUs with 266MHz FSB, which are to be announced on Monday. The CPUs with 266MHz FSB will be just a bit more expensive than the CPUs working at the same frequency but featuring 200MHz FSB. We made up a small comparative table including new and old prices:


AMD Athlon 1.2GHz (266MHz FSB) $673
AMD Athlon 1.2GHz (200MHz FSB) $612
AMD Athlon 1.13GHz (266MHz FSB) $506
AMD Athlon 1.1GHz (200MHz FSB) $460
AMD Athlon 1GHz (266MHz FSB) $385
AMD Athlon 1GHz (200MHz FSB) $350
AMD Athlon 950MHz (200MHz FSB) $282
AMD Athlon 900MHz (200MHz FSB) $215
AMD Athlon 850MHz (200MHz FSB) $193


As you know the official prices are usually higher than the actual retail prices.

Chuck, Re: The language is "will be" instead of "is" and 1/3 of Q4 is already over.

Oh, come on! <g> Suppose the A7M266 was due to be shipping in volume as of Nov 15th? Or Dec 1st? Then "will be" is precisely the right language to use.

As you say, Q4 is [almost] 1/3 over... not 90% over, nor actually over.

Anyhow, this board sounds fantastic. If it can actually reach 360 MHz FSB (perhaps while dropping the CPU multiplier a notch or two to compensate, and using more expensive DDR memory) its performance should be great.

Doug

p.s. unrelated question: What's the P4 chipset's (850, right?) limit in terms of maximum Rambust memory that can be used? 1 Gb? 2 Gb? More? less?
