Boot Magazine says that K6-2 was well worth the wait .
It gives some interesting comparisons of Quake run on PII-333 and
K6-2 333 . Note especially the higher resolution in the following link :-

PS how reliable is your source on yields ?
The comments from ESC Technologies are born out by the price and number of listings at Pricewatch of K6-300 which are at last count 53 listings with lowest price at $139 .
It is also interesting to note that the Kryotech 450mhz version of K6-2 is a complete PC priced at $1695 as mentioned in the same Boot article .
