I just bought a K6-266 and tried it on 3 motherboards that support 2.2V. Unfortunately, 2 out of 3 won't work with K6-266 at all. PC-Chip TXPro3 works fine with the limitation to maximize at 292Mhz (83x3.5). PC-Chip M570 locked up during booting into Win95. FYI VIA VP3 597 won't boot at all. All these 3 boards were manufactured during this year. This kind of trouble indicated that AMD did not co-ordinate and spread out enough engineer samples with all board manufacturers. I have been excited with the secrete weapons on the statement of K3-3D performance equals to PII-400. However, these compatible problems between K6-266 and motherboards makes me worry towards the compatibility of K6-3D. Did the recent stock retrieve relate to this doubt?
