Hi, JYW, re: your 12/23 analysis of K6 power dissipation in 0.25 um. I'm back from a long vacation, but thanks for your analysis. You basically came to the conclusion that K6 at 300 MHz should not be a thermal problem, but at speeds around 466 MHz, the 15w estimated dissipation might be difficult from a 68mm^2 die. Does the slot 1 design pull heat from the bottom of the die, or is the improved cooling simply the result of lower case-to-ambient thermal constant? Petz
