Petz,

I would think the first 333 bus machine would be a 2800+ running at 2250 (13.5 * 166.7). A 3000+ would be at 2416.

I also thought that AMD would call 13.5 * 166 and 2800, but 2700 might work just fine. There is no Intel 2700. If needs to beat Intel 2.6 and 2.66 in most benchmarks, but does not need to beat 2.8 on most benchmarks.

My question is where AMD is with inventory of these new "b" revision parts compared to previous models. I think AMD can do acceptably well with the new parts until Hammer is out, as long as these parts are the majority of what AMD is selling.

Joe

Petz, re: "The difference between 2600 and 2700 is pretty microscopic"

I agree. Perhaps AMD will use the odd-numbered models for the 333 FSB and keep the evens for 266 with both actually running at the same clock speed? This would make for some uneven MHz:Model proportions, however from the different FSB*multiplier steps.
