Elmer , re. 233mhz as you expected.. Keep on thinking that way Elmer , as an Intel investor I expect you to bury your head in the sand . Have you seen the Ernst, Mcwhinney ad ? It shows how a Corporation becomes number 1 , then drops the last 3 characters to become numb. The competition is here to stay and its real , face up to the facts or lose money , Brian

Elmer, Re: "This overheating is exactly what Yousef told us to expect to see." I have been posting for some time about the disadvatages of using a higher operating supply voltage to get the 233mhz K6 performance. As mentioned many times, power will be a lager problem for AMD versus Intel due to the different supply voltages (Intel .35um process is at lower voltage). This all stems from the fact that AMD's .35um process is not as agressive with the FET drive currents and these have not been optimized for lower voltages. This also will occur with the AMD .25um process based on preliminary info on operating supply voltages for this new AMD process. BTW Elmer remember, Brian is not responding to you ... or ... me. I wonder if as a child, Brian took his ball and went home ... or ... held his breath to get his way !! Rather childish don't you think ??!! Make It So, Yousef
