If Intel could reach 200 MHz, they would. Only AMD can at this juncture. Intel will not reach 200 MHz until their 7th generation processor hits the market, in the second half of 2000. They're only a year late!

Re: "Well you answered my question. It has nothing to do with the K7, but everything to do with the external device speed!!!. A high powered regulator can't speed up the return time of an external device. And if it could, everyone else (INTEL) would do the same thing."

Intel will have a 266MHz AGP port when they introduce their Camino chipset, supposedly in September. May I also correct another point? Everyone keeps talking about AMD's system bus. The K7 does not have a system bus but rather a point to point port, much like the AGP port.
