Rod, Do I understand you correctly that I should get a 66Mc variant for my Asus T2P4 because a 100Mc is unlikely to work? Or are the newer 100Mc chips also coping OK with 66Mc FSB? (I'm aware of the slight hardware hack required to make a T2P4 accept a K6-2. What would be the fastest K6-2 running ok with a 66 FSB? And is this potential upgrade worthwhile, with K6-2 going here for around 80-90$ or so?)
