Question: Any recommendations out there? Suggest: Get yourself a P-II/400 with 100MHz bus, and be done with it. Do you want the best computer you have ever owned? Then get that P-II/400 with 100MHz bus for now. Time Traveler

Edwin, I would recommend the unique 112Mhz FIC VA-503+ to run with K6-2. It is available for $106 from "Real World". realworldtech.com On this board, you could set the "(SD)RAM frequence = AGP frequence" to use all your existing EDO/SDRAM to run at 112Mhz since the RAM are timed at 75Mhz. With 112Mhz 1MB L2 cache, K6-280/112 is faster than PII-300/66 while K6-336/112 is as fast as PII-350/100 (if not faster) under Business Winstone97. P.S. The undocumented 112Mhz bus on VA-503+ is 1-2 2-3 2-3.
