As I understand it, AMD has shipped 2 versions of the AMD K6-2 300. The earlier chips had a 66Mhz external bus (66*4.5) and the newer chips (since July 98) use a 100Mhz external bus (100*3). I beleive it's mentioned somewhere in the FAQ for the VA503+ at FIC's web site (http://www.fic.com.tw). david@sparks.net wrote: > On Wed, 4 Nov 1998, RPD wrote: > > > David, > > > > Did you buy new memory also?.
