<K6 has a weak L1 cache when comparing to M2. However, this weakness could be easily patched with the 2MB L2 cache under 100Mhz bus speed. I should expect that K6-400Mhz on such a board will kick PII-400 hard. These poor PII users won't have the fun of 2MB L2 cache for a while.> Incestor A - I would expect that a 400mhz K6 would be a real screamer also. Trouble is that by the time a K6-400 is out, it will still be comparable to an Intel 4th or 5th string offering. Your Pal, Elmer PS, how's your sister?
