Ali,

Re: "P-III with 1.8V is a typical Intel-foil (tm EP?). Most of the Intel
Supremacy Klan members got fooled by those foils."

No Ali ... The Intel .25um process was developed and characterized for
voltage operation of 1.8V +- 10%. Thus 1.6V and 2.0V are within that
"bound". BTW, AMD in comparison has much wider voltage "needs" ... Something
about "jacking up" the voltage to get performance. Remember Ali, it's
now the "voltage thing" for AMD. <ggg>

Make It So,
Yousef

<P-III with 1.8V is a typical Intel-foil>

I wonder where the 1.8 volt figure came from in the first place. Even you thought that the Pentium III was 1.8 volts until I pointed it out to you, Ali.

By the way, thanks for the info on Slot 1 and "voltage regulators."
