| 35922 | 2002-02-16 14:06:00 | I have a pentium 200 mmx (slow) in a socket 7 motherboard. I read in one of your old mags that a k6-3 chip could fit in a socket 7. How fast does the k6-3 go? | Guest (0) | ||
| 35923 | 2002-02-16 16:23:00 | The K6-3 came in two speeds I think. 400MHz and 450MHz. The CPU actually sits in a Super Socket 7. Not sure if it's the same as Socket 7. Think this type of motherboard came with an L3 Cache (Trilevel). I should really get some sleep. Been up writing a Perl script for my mate. |

| 35925 | 2002-02-17 00:26:00 | If your motherboard already has L2 cache you can use the AMD K2 500 processor which is currently in good supply and not expensive. The K3 chips are as scarce as rocking horse teeth. The K2 500 is pretty good if your motherboard supports 100MHz bus to run it. |
