FASTEST SOCKET 7 PROCESSOR

[edwardauskis]

Hi,
Maybe on this subject was written.Anyway Which Socket 7 processor your opinions is fastest? Im interesting your personal opinion and experience about this, not internet bench tests.Do not be lazy, please share your memories and experiences
Thanks!

Are Super Socket 7 processors included or not?

I would guess

In sore (rare) cases this would be slightly faster:

oh I did not even know there was a 570! Crap and all this time I thought I had the fastest K6 and so the search for ANOTHER CPU begins.

By the way, Buffalo made 600 MHz upgrade for socket 7 based on overclocked K6-III+/550, HK6-MS600P-NV4.

Another similar one (with the same p/n )was based on K6-2+:

It was quite popular in Japan.

Then answer is... the same =)
Or do you mean strictly 2.8 Vcore?

[edwardauskis]

hmm.. I mean, who made fastest with socket 7 Adapter up to super 7 included. AMD leader?

Sure AMD K6-2+/III+ line was the fastest if you able to use it.
If classic socket 7 (66 bus, 2.8 V), then probably K6-300 for integer math
and Pentium MMX 233 for floating point.

I have this mobo:

but now i see if more 200 not supported... how works adapters to super 7?

[frag_]

Looks like this mobo's lowest core voltage is 2.5V.
Too high for 2+/III+.
You can try e.g. K6-III/400AHX (would be 0.1V over spec) without adapter.

If you need to run "+" you need lower voltage, 2.0 or 2.2V.
Adapters have VRM on board for this reason.

Another problem is - most likely you'll need bios upgrade for any amd cpu with L2 cache on die.

Thanks frag...
