5speed,
Thanks for the article.

Paul E....That heise article states that the chipset used with the covington won't support an external L2 (on the motherboard) cache so there supposedly be no L2 cache option for the covington. So what tricks can Intel use to get the covington-266 to perform on a par with the K6-266?

Great description! Thanks. Does anyone out there know the cost savings by using the 3 chip L2 cache rather than the five chip cache?
