Re: "EP, Re: <Where are you going to get a L3 cache controller John?>
Sheesh, pretty simple stuff, I didn't realize Intel was so clueless.
There is no difference between an L3 cache controller and an L2 cache controller. (L2 cache on Socket 7 motherboards will automatically be L3 to a K6-3.)"

Sheesh, pretty clueless aren't you John. You were talking about Mendocino, not Sharptooth. Here's what YOU wrote.

"Intel's answer to Sharptooth? One possibility for Intel is to embed the Mendocino die into a Slot 1 module with 512K L3 cache. "

Soooo, let's try this again John. Where are you going to get the L3 controller?
