Tbh, I wouldn't have been bothered really that much if 550MHz does run stable 😊
I've tried a couple of K6-III+ 400ATZ and both max at 1.9V 550MHz. My OCD is strong though, I really need those 50MHz to round up that number and achieve the insane performance of... a Pentium II 350 🤣 .

575 MHz is ~600 MHz in my book! 😉
And you'd be totally right, but I'd really love to hit 600 with one chip. I love these little buggers!
I have a 400Mhz K6-3+ ATZ and it only does 600MHz stable on my Aopen AX59Pro @ 2.1v. It will do 600 stable on my lucky tech P4MVP3-X but only at 2.4v. I tried it on other boards - two MVP3 based AT boads -a soltek and a jetway, then on my Asus P5A and a gigabyte GA-G5AA - neither will do more then 550MHz regardless of voltage.
What I'm trying to say is that the mainboard you use might be more important then the chip.
I actually got the thing running at 560MHz at one point (fsb 112) and 533 (fsb 133) both stable on my Aopen AX59Pro. Both settings are faster then 6x100, but none are practical since the MVP5 chipset will not divide FSB/4 for PCI, just like the intel 440bx...
