Let's see. Jochem, I have found the book and am looking. Fifth
generation pentiums used socket 4 or socket 5. The AMD K6 used Socket
7.

I can't remember which of these is between the CPU and the
Northbridge, so perhaps you can remind me. But.

P5
external speed - 50-66 mhz
internal speed - 60-200 mhz

K6
external speed 66-100 mhz
internal speed 200-550 mhz

Does that answer your question? If not, let me know and I will look a
little deeper. I got this out of a summary section.
