I asked because i'm considering having an intel based webserver for the fact that they are very available in Agora right now, as well as more upgradable.

Just make sure the heatsink is big enough and their is good thermal paste between the cpu and heatsink.

It roughly resembles a 486 in quake.

I wouldn't pay more than 20 dollars for something from the likes of Cyrix (where Via got the thing)
Which is another reason I don't like the C3
I don't wish to perpetuate the evilness that is Via. I do not want to be one who is found guilty of putting food on the table of their Win32 driver team.

Sorry to dissapoint you, but VIA got the thing from Winchip. (Indeed, even worse than Cyrix)

Riso has it right. The C3 core is actually a Centaur which made Winchips. The C5X core, which is allegedly due in late 2002 and is similar to the Intel P7 core (17+ pipeline stages), will be homegrown (Via). Which means it should be expected to work only intermittently at best.

Whatever did happen to the Cyrix stuff? It just dissapear? (They did make chips for a while right? :eek: )

Last true Cyrix processor was the MIII if I remember right. Early P6-core rip. I could be wrong.

I don't think so. i remeber it being a POS all round. In fact I thought it was really:
:fruit:
I belive it was an in-order design with such a bad FP implementation, I wouldn't be surprised if it was implemented in microcode using the Int ALU's. :gay:
