Before that, I was with a 7200/120 which is a 601 chip. I worried that the 6500 wich I bought almost used but in mint condition would be slower. In fact it is not that much faster but more and more I use it, more and more I can feel the upgrade. The only downgrade is the max RAM. Here's for you. Like me, you wanted to know what meant the "ev". 603ev, 603p (Valiant) The 603e got a second bump with a processor called the 603ev (valiant) - but the names were only used inside of development. The manufacturing changes allowed for more speed and lower cost - they did not change the design (just how it was made), so outside of development circles it is known as the 603e (just like the other 603e, only at faster MHz). 603r, 603er (Goldeneye) The 603e got another manufacturing change (code named GoldenEye), which lead to even faster 603e's -- up to 300MHz. Again, this did not significantly change the design of the chip. So outside of development circles it is still called the 603e.
