>>"...you can now upgrade your socket 7 system of about $300 to get your system [K6/266 overclocked to 333MHz] to be better than PII-400"<< Maxwell, Time Traveler knows that you are joking around, but a lot of less sophisticated viewers here at the AMD thread (especially of those heavily invested in AMD) would not know otherwise. Thanks for that joke, Time Traveler is still laughing. Time Traveler

Maxwell, why don't you put your money where your mouth is and load up on AMD at $20??? I'll be happy to short the stock anywhere north of $25... Intel will sell 300-PII close to $200 soon, and how will AMD respond??? By losing more money. joey

Maxwell, Petz and other K6 users, May I suggest you to get an FIC VA-503+ 1MB cache and oc your K6 to 336Mhz with its 112Mhz bus speed as my system? VA-503+ has a unique feature to allow users to set the RAM speed to either system speed or AGP speed. Thus, you could use your existing EDO and/or SDRAM to run 112Mhz bus speed without the need to buy the expensive PC100 SDRAM. The slightly imperfect L1 cache on K6 is perfected patched by the 1MB L2 cache at 112Mhz!! I have to admit that this K6-336Mhz is noticeably faster than my the other M2-225Mhz system. :(( Fuchi ... who loves Cyrix's innovations Please support the PC industry & protect consumer interest techstocks.com users.aol.com
