Without doing too much flabulous research, I believe the K6 stopped at 300MHz. A 700 would be a K6-III, which would not have the 32MB problem. Flaky and heat-sen- sitive they are indeed. And there is a lot of junk 133 memory out there too. Based on my limited experience, about 60% of the time you can run 100MHz memory at 133MHz. If not you may have to rejumper your bus-speed to 100. If you are further unlucky the board won't have a 7:1 multiplier and you'll be stuck underclocking pretty seriously. This might actually make the machine useable, though. -- --
