If you are multiplying a 66Mhz base clock to get your processor clock then you only need PC66 (although I've not yet seen a situation where faster won't work too - just don't go slower). If your base clock is faster then you need the PC100 memory.
of it. The K6-2 series generally use a chipset that can
handle PC100 memory. The plain K6 motherboards were
generally PC66 only.>>> "Marcel Kunath" <kunathma@pilot.msu.edu> 05/04/00 09:45AM >>>
Anybody else think the memory evolution is a mess? I mean its all nice about
choice and innovation but I wish they stick to some type of guideline.Can I use PC 100 SDRAM with a amd k6-2 300 mhz system?
Just ran across this:
PC66 SDRAM modules
(For Pentium / PII & K6 systems 120MHz to 333MHz - With
66MHz Bus)PC100 SDRAM modules
(For PII/PIII & K6, Athlon K7 systems
350MHz - 1000MHz - With 100MHz Bus)But then I see one some website a system sold with K6-2 300 MHZ and PC 100
memory. Contradiction?Mike Rambo
