K6-2-300 now only $144 at The Chip Merchant. If anyone wants to build a fast and cheap system, now is the time. Put aside your distaste for Jerry Sanders (it is hard) and help support AMD. I bought my chip about a month ago for about $180, wish I would have waited, but the performance gain was worth it. A-Open mb has worked flawlessly.

P, Re -- So, I change my estimate to 18% and Going from 66 MHz to 100 MHz gains 10% on Winstone. I like it!! However the 10% gain also comes from increased memory access speed, Your computations no doubt have included this? Stockman
