Hello,

I am currently auctioning 2 IBM 6x86 PR300, when I wrote down the part numbers I noticed that one runs at 3.5 x 66MHz the other 3.0 x 75MHz.

To my maths that makes one of them run at 231MHz the other at 225MHz ? Not only are they not the same, both fiigures are quite a bit down on 300MHz - Did IBM reacon that their CPU was 25% faster than an equivalent Intel ?

Yes, they are PR ratings.
