My K6-3 is really my K6-2 which I installed a new MB/CPU to make it a K6-3. The K6-2 was not much help for CSTal-2. I think the larger CPU cache makes the difference. The K6-3 has 64K L1 & 256K L2 on board and my mother board has 1 Meg of L3 cache for a total of 1320K. Hiarcs 7.32 also likes the K6-3. Jim Walker
