Fuchi, may will be some time before 100mhz bus systems show up. No CPU supplier supports a 100mhz bus as yet. AMD has promised to support it on a future K6 release, but there is no clear indication as to when there will be volume. My guess is that Intel will ship a 100mhz hostbus P6 generation processor and chipset before you can buy a Socket7 system with a full spec 100mhz host bus K6. There may be Socket7 systems available before then, but not with a guaranteed CPU. EP

First k6-300 Winbench results at sysdoc.pair.com There aren't too many Winbench '98 results to compare it with, but looking at my latest Computer Shopper, the K6-300 is faster than all Pentium II 233's and 266's. In fact the average Winbench 98 of the K6-300 motherboards of 21.0 compares with an average Winbench score of 21.5625 for eight PII-300 systems reviewed on p.215 of Feb'98 computer shopper. 100 MHz bus will considerably increase the Winbench score of the K6-300.
