RDM, Re: "How do we know the FPU was used" Apparently the K7-600 was also demoed as well as the 1Ghz super cooled chip. They were running the same 3D graphics demo - per previous posting on this or Intels thread. I believe a 3D demo will require FPU useage. Intels demo was more of a simple display showing the frequency ramp as it was "cranked up". Anyhow Kryotech is promising it for delivery as same time as generic K7 is released per their web site. So it looks like a 1Ghz machine can be purchased within a few months. Quite impressive as far as clock speed goes. Obviously we still need the benchmarks to really evaluate this monster. Regards, Kash
