do u know if Intel has any socket 7 processors at least 500MHz, cuz all i know, is that most of them is FC-PGA, S370 and Slot 1.

Intel gave up S7 long ago, the last one was the P233MMX.

i know that, i love AMD and i kno almost everything about that, but my dad wants an Intel for his socket 7.. i doubt there are any fast ones, but i might of not seen it correctly, is there a fast socket 7 processor from intel??? or are they mostly FC-PGA, s370, and Slot 1s now.

It depends on your definition of fast. The fastest Intel socket 7 chip is a 233MMX. I suppose you could overclock it a bit higher on some motherboards, but that's about it for Intel. Sorry.

uhm.. well hehe, if i put a P233, he'd notice a difference, cuz in his comp. he has a 380MHz K6-2, hehe, i have the fastest 523MHz K6-2. I'm gonna buy an Athlon later on. But right now, i'm getting an alpha fansink, and Asus's P5A-B mobo.

well...put a k6-2 550 in there....that should be a big enough diff that he doesn't mind it not being intel...
