| Thank you for pointing us to Tom's
Hardware review and your most correct observation concerning AMD's
K6-2+. You will, of course, find Super-7 motherboards in desktops as
well as notebooks. Thus, as our CPU
Featurator shows, the K6-2+ can be safely used in both, provided the
desktop motherboard can support its lower voltage requirements.
Note, however, that the K6-2+ was produced with a definite focus toward
the notebook market. It incorporates PowerNow!
and other benefits for notebooks that you would not typically appreciate
in a desktop system. But as our CPU Scorecard
indicates, a K6-2+ would certainly be a viable desktop upgrade for anyone
running slower-clocked versions of AMD's K6-2
or K6-III processors. |
