Elmer - Re: "Running at 600 MHz and 533 MHz, the Coppermine processors contain architectural innovations to boost system performance. " Any idea what this might mean?" Perhaps this is a reference to the on-chip 256 L2 cache for the Coppermine. Remember - this is a FULL CPU speed L2 cache - so for many applications where a 256K L2 cache is adequate, the faster cache access times - AND SCUMBRIAN LOW LATENCY - will show better performance than standard Pentium ///s with 512K 1/2 CPU speed L2 cache.
