933Mhz Athlon In April
by Maarten Goldstein, Feb 22, 2000 4:25am PSTThe Register is on top of it again, reporting that AMD will unleash a 933mhz Athlon in April. Current price is $860 but they (some Taiwanese sources of The Register) expect it to sell for less than $850 when it ships. Thanks AMD Zone.
Further good news for AMD and its Athlon Powers suggest that FIC's (First International Corporation's) SK11 boards are likely to hit OEMs real soon now, for around $85. These will use the Via KX153 chipset supporting 133MHz synchronous memory 4xAGP and other features."Your video it not working too well" ? Heh, sounds kinda wacky.
According to the source, the FIC SK11 has a software BIOS overclocking facility which will allow users to keep clocking up the board until it fails, and then to auto-drop to the last reliable clock-up.
This mobo, apparently, will also tell users what error codes are, using real-life phrases like: "Your video it not working too well."

getting its act togather quickly and Intel is falling apart in the mhz
warz. Rdram @ $1000 for 128 megs anyone?
And they\'d be calling it the PR-750+!
I had a Cyrix PR-200LP .. man it sucked ass...real clock speed was 150 mhz, and it\'s FPU was about like a P-90.
It was barely tolerable for Quake1, and sucked ass for Quake2... this is why I build my own systems now, instead of letting some two bit computer store build it and stick in a crap processor.
Computer: \"Your blow-job port needs cleaning.\"
Geek: \"What? Oh, uh, heh heh...\"
Who is it?
Who do you think? AMD!!
I thought that was 1.21 JIGGAWATTS!! [sic]
were trying to go faster here..wtf is up with that,looks like if you go intel the best bet is a tyan trinity..I guess
chipset.... due out in late April last I heard. Supposed to fix everything
that was broken/substandard in their Irongate chipset. Also, I would
wait for the Athlon to have its ondie cache\', summer sometime. Once
that is done, the Athlon is gonna be one nice CPU, esp for o/c.
As for Intel, they are really starting to piss everyone off. All I can say,
is that it must be bad mgmt b/c its one fiasco after another. btw-
the camio chipset will NOT support Sdram133 for quite some time.
It seems their silicon is fuxored.
And you misspelled \"you\'re.\" The irony of it all...
damn money talks and bs walks...fuck that a 750athlon at that price how can you go wrong?But what board is best for athlon?thats all I need to know,you cant beat those prices man..
wacky? Bah. the technology has been available for shit like this for a long time, but mobo mfg\'s are just figuring this out...
Which is easier to understand when your system blackscreens before post?
a) Beeeeeeeeep Beeeeeeeeeep Beep Beep . . . Beep
1) \"no video card detected\"
..there, I feel better now.
These Athlons suck compared to Pentium 3 Coppermines because of the cache. If they don\'t add that on die cache soon, people will call the Athlon\'s cache crap like the fucked up FPU on the K6-2!
