CPU arrived, very happy with the results;

This is before the TAG and DB Cache chips arrived to get the L2 cache working, and the Bios update (working on that one).

Nice. I installed the cache chip set I had. Now running 128k l2 cache. Haven't pulled it apart to do the voltage regulator yet.

Cache chips arrived, here are the results;

I have not updated the bios yet. It all just works?

I don't know how to check if it's working in write back mode though. L1 Cache is though?

I have noticed a huge improvement in performance playing Duke3D.
