How can L2 cache off increase performance?thanx
430FX boards with pipeline burst cache was not that common the beginning. Actually it started to be more common after the VX and HX chipsets were released in January 1996. How much performance increase PB cache gives over regular cache is not known, but I dont think it will be more than 1-2 frames pr. second in most games. The VX, HX, TX introduced PB cache directly soldered on the motherboard or they continued the COAST module as also found on the FX boards.
