Just a little side note, although enough info might have been given out
already...

I have a K6-2/500 system (actually a 550@6x83) running at 2.2v core. It
runs very fast and has tracked stable for a few months now, building about
every week or so. I decided as of 4.1.1-R to stop this wasting of time,
and built that. 4.1.1-R is built and has been running very stable for a
week now.

I can also agree with others that a good heatsink/fan combo and either
conducting grease or pads are a MUST with this chip. With a good amount of
grease on mine, it runs fine even without the fan, but I didn't like the
idea of this just to save a little bit more of my ear drums.
