Thanks for your comments. My kids tell me they could only afford a K6-2 266. Will they see much difference over their Cyrix? Also, their Motherboard is one of the generic variety and does not specifically state that it supports K6-2s. It does however allow you to set the cpu core voltage to the required 2.2v. There are external clock selector for 60, 66, 75, and 83mhz. If I did put a 266 K6-2 on their board which setting would I use and then what multiplier setting.? > >> My boys have a Cyrix 233 chip in their computer.
