Technology Stocks : CYRIX / NSM -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

<Off Topic> Has anyone used an ATI All-In-Wonder Pro 2x AGP with SGRAM? I'm looking for TV tuner, full-motion video capture (to create .AVIs), and fast gaming. Also, other than ultra-high resolutions, is there any advantage to bumping the memory from 4MB to 8MB?

Any suggestions, public or private, would be appreciated.

Craig

Craig,

The jumper for 112Mhz bus on VA-503+ is

1-2
2-3
2-3

K6 loves high bus speed. Once, you clock it @112 bus and compare it to your pricy PII side by side. You would get sick for what you paid towards Intel.

The 1MB L2 cache at 100/112Mhz FSB patched K6 weakness on low memory bandwidth so well that Cyrix M2 performance edge is dismissing quickly. NSM has good reasons to hit all time low. INTC is the next to go.

Fuchi ... who loves Cyrix's innovations
