K6-350-450 is certainly an unreasonable prize difference. AFAIR the difference between 350 and 400MHz is marginal, so I'd advice to take the 400MHz. 64MB RAM is the lower limit at the moment, so if you still want to use your PC in 1 or 2 years you should take 128MB minimum. What kind of PC do you have right now?
