Advantages: reliable , stable, cheap

Disadvantages: none

The k6 2 range of processors by AMD are a very good and reliable chip, the price factor and overall reliability make them a very goo alternative to the pentium processors. I am using the k62 500 on a gigabyte ga5ax m/board at present and in my opinion it performs amazingly well in gaming and general day to day use. I also build computers and we still have a great demand for this type of chip as its reputation is that good.
The top range of the K62 chips (450,500,550)seem to be very stable, fast and reliable in most of the socket 7 boards that we have tried ie jetway,gigabyte and pc chips and this makes it very cheap to produce a computer that will react well to most if not all tasks asked of it . A little more advertising and marketing would have given AMD a better slice of the market and more people may have benefited from this good chip. It may now be getting a little old but well worth a look if you are on a budget to get a computer. Long live the 500!
