In the case of PPro's, with a price difference of ~$50 per chip, does it
pay to spend the extra on the 166/512k ($145) as compared to the 180/256k? 
($95)  Straight clock speeds should dictate that the 166/512k would be a
little faster due to the larger cache onboard.  But if you overclock both
to, say, 200, is there enough of a difference to notice it?  I can study
every benchmark and come out with a winner on paper, but is the
price/performance worth it...
