<<Didn't AMD transition to .18u before they reached 1 GHz, meaning top of the line .25u was not 1 GHz but something like 850 MHz? >> I think the last .25u athlon was 700mhz. Everything above was .18u.

Dear Joe: Check on PW. Search for '512 slot A athlon CPU' yields one listing: "AMD Microprocessors PC 2/28, 12:18 PM Athlon 1GHz with 3DNow! (K7) - OEM - 512k SlotA 512k classic INCLUDES 30day DEALER warranty (Part - CPK7-00110 ) $ 299 10 AC Micro 866-226-4276 301-513-0390 MD " Sorry, 1GHZ 0.25u Athlon (only Athlons to have 512KB of cache, so far) does exist. It came out in May 2000 along with 1GHz Coppermine P3 a few days later. Its been over 22 months and Intel has yet to double its performance in that time. AMD has more than doubled it as 256KB 1GHz Tbird @266 is much faster overall than 512KB 1GHz Classic @200. Pete
