sadly its not *quite* like that, the days of every 300A to 450 are over,
from what i hear the current costa ricas arent anywhere near as good a
best as the older malays, many not even doing 450 @ 2.2v

aparrently some 366's do 550, WHEEEEEEE!

but with the original comment, i wouldnt get a cyrix intentionally, i have
one here but it just dials the phone and i got nearly the whole thing for
the price of an s3v videocard
