I got the graphs: Business Windstone 98/99 K6-3 450: 33.1/22.5 K6-3 400: 30.7/21.3 PII 450: 29.5/20.6 Damn, the "3" is especially dominant in WINDOWS NT Business Winstone 98/99!!! K6-3 450: 39.2/30.1 K6-3 400: 37.3/28.4 PII 450: 36.9/27.7 For some reason I can't get the page with gaming performance--it's almost like the NT page replaced it. Big cringe warranted. <gg> Kevin

Cringe - Re: " Can't wait until February when the chip comes out! " Can't wait until Intel's DIXON comes out. Maybe that will be in February as well...or January. Paul

The K6-3 numbers: Got all these from www.anandtech.com Windows 98 Performance: Business Winstone 98 K6-3 450 - 33.1 K6-3 400 - 30.7 P-II 450 - 29.5 Cel 450A - 29.5 K6-3 350 - 28.9 P-II 400 - 27.6 Windows 98 Performance: Business Winstone 99 (If you remember, this is the benchmark the K6-2 performed poorly on) K6-3 450 - 22.5 K6-3 400 - 21.3 P-II 450 - 20.6 Cel 450A - 20.6 K6-3 350 - 20.2 P-II 400 - 19.2 Windows NT4 Performance: Business Winstone 98 K6-3 450 - 39.2 K6-3 400 - 37.3 P-II 450 - 36.9 Cel 450A - 36.8 P-II 400 - 35.8 K6-3 350 - 35.5 Windows NT4 Performance: Business Winstone 99 K6-3 450 - 30.1 K6-3 400 - 28.4 P-II 450 - 27.7 Cel 450A - 27.7 K6-3 350 - 26.7 P-II 400 - 26.5 Looks like Winstone 99 IS L2 speed dependent. At least AMD's pre-released processor didn't disappoint as some other company's did early last week. Don't mean to one up you Kevin, just wanted to post the 350 scores also. I want to let them be able to absorb everything ;)
