K6-3 on Monday
This Monday, AMD will unveil the K6-3 at
400 and 450 MHz. The chip will have an on-chip 256k L2 cache, and
will go in existing Super 7 motherboard. The chip will probably top
out at 500 MHz shortly, but the chip should be produced into Y2K.
The chip reputedly performs like Pentium *3* of equivalent
clock, or even outperforms it with enough cache. People
like me have a decision to make - I have a K6-2 333 with 1MB of
L2 cache, and need to decide whether or not I should save up
for a K7 (hopefully SMP...) or just go for it and buy a K6-3. Thank
William Rhodes for the heads up
