Re: K6-III+

gc12, how does your V5 do wih games(UT and Q3 specifically)? I have a V5 AGP on a 503+ (K63+@550) and the 3d performance is terrible. Never could figure out why, maybe you've discovered the secret to unlocking V5 potential on the K6! Speak up if you've got the answer!!<br> <p></p><i></i>

Re: K6 x+ trilevel cache 1MB or 2MB?

As the K6's L1 and L2 cache supposedly act completely independently of the L3 cache, I would imagine that this means the the extra meg isn't used at all. Anyway that's my guess, good question! <p></p><i></i>

How to install Win2K and force APM mode rather than ACPI?

I remember that with Win98SE there is a startup switch that disables detection of PnP BIOS's and that will cause Win98 to default to APM mode. Is there something similar for Win2K? <p></p><i></i>

Re: K62+ or III+ when running at the same speed?

I thought about this too since I bought a couple of 2+s when the 3+'s had all dried up. So far I've resisted the temptation to upgrade to 3+ at least in my mind (so far) it's probably not worth the upgrade..... <p></p><i></i>

Re: are k6-III's faster at the same clock then k6-III+ cpus?

Yeah I seem to remember something about that also. I can't see how it could possibly be true though. For all the good info that used to be had out on the AMDzone MB there was a lot of BS too! <p></p><i></i>

That's a good deal!! Where'd you get that K6 from? You probably will hit 550 with no troubles. <p></p><i></i>
