Subject: How fast will new MB and CPU combos be?

Author: Bela Andrew Evans

I'm considering getting a new computer later this year, and I'm
wondering what others think about the new 100 mhz bus motherboards
coupled with the 300 to 400 mhz PII or K6-3D chips coming out in the
next few quarters.

Will the speed increases for chess programs be dramatic? Any one
care to estimate how fast a 400 mhz PII or 350 mhz K6-3D running on
a 100 mhz motherboard would be compared to the ssdf standard
200 mhz pentium mmx?

Should we start drooling yet? :)
