Hello Dan.
The Athlon 500 MHz (only, form now, sneeef ;-) is a really GREAT performer.
I had tree days delay in getting my Athlon. It is now up since Saturday
morning 7.30 am.
Wow, what a night and very few sleep.
My 'normal' medical 3D visualization programs run twice as fast as with
my K6-III 400. But floating
point intensive applications runs three (yes 3 :-) times faster as
with the K6-III 400.
Here are my results!!! :-)
System was:
AMD Athlon (K7) 500 MHz (core <-> mem speed ratio 2:1, for this time)
MSI mainboard MS-6167 ATX IR1
256 MB PC100 RAM
Voodoo3 3000 166 MHz (NOT oc)
Adaptec AHA-2940UW
IBM DDRS-34560W 4.5 GB

Q2/Q3 do NOT
run at this time :-(
Maybe some 3DNow! vs. 3DNow! Rev. 2 (Athlon) issues?! --- Daryll?
But that's not so important (for me, at least @ this stage) ;-)
Any comments, hints should go to this newsgroup.
Have fun (I have :-)
