anybody have any idea on the price that the new AMD .13 chips will be? i know that because the new process allows more chips on a wafer and stuff like that, that the price per chip was supposed to come down. so, any word on the new chips?

great question. I'm more worried about if the chip will be compatible with ALL the major chipsets, or just some of them

yeah really, i just got a board based on the KT266A chipset and i love it. i don't want to have to upgrade my mobo again. i just got this thing like 2 months ago.

I think they'll be compatible, cause all they change is the wafer size and micron technology, it shouldn't effect the pin layout or similiar...just a bios upgrade maybe and you should be set...

yeah, thatz wut i was thinkin. just like when the xp's came out, most boards just needed a bios update and were all set.
