Impressive. You ought to take a crack at the 3D Mark thread, you might have a shot at the high score for an MVP3 board. Even with the advantage of a K6-3+ (a modified K6-2+ 570), your scores edge out my best Speedsys with my Epox MVP3G-M. I can go higher on the FSB on this board, but I have to disable the motherboard's cache to do so, so the net difference is negligible.

After watching many YouTube videos about older computer hardware, YouTube began recommending videos about trains - are they trying to tell me something?

Very impressive! K6-III+ has 256K full speed cache!

Could you tell me what 3D bench tool they used?

And the thread link please? Thanks.

Need Windows 9x and a great GPU....... a complex procedure.........

They even managed to 133MHz fsb, but L2 onboard cache disabled......
