I seem to remember reading that the L2 cache is in the module but still not on the die in the latest 1 GHz chips. I'm waiting for them to get it on the die so that it can run at full CPU speed! They'll have to do this to stay competitive with Intel. Once they do, their chips will really howl. --Brett At 09:13 PM 5/13/2000, Kris Kirby wrote: >I think you have to see if it has SRAMs or not.
