Using Windows 2000 with a Epox EP-MVP3C2 motherboard and a K6-2+ 550MHz processor. I need someone to set me straight on a few thngs. The system right now is running with 128Mb of SDRAM. The motherboard has only 512K of L2 cache. If I remember right, with 512K of L2 cache, the system can only cache 128Mb of system memory (please correct me if I am wrong...!!). Now, the processor, being a K6-2'+' series, has 128K of built-in L2 cache, effectively making the motherboard cache a 'L3' cache. Sooooooooo...
1. How much RAM can the system cache?
2. Does the built-in L2 cache on the K6-2+ have any effect on the amount of cacheable RAM?
3. What happens when physical memory exceeds the amount of cacheable RAM, and does using W2K affect this in any way?
I have actually sent a couple of emails to AMD and never heard back...bloody wankers!!
Thanks Guys!!!!!
