re asante ethernet adapter for lciii math chip in article c syk js ie utoronto ca andy ie utoronto ca andy sun writes hi i have been told by a local sales that asante has come out with this lciii pds ethernet adapter with an optional socket on the board my question is will the fpu performance degrade will i put the on the pds card socket instead of on the motherboard itself intuitively the math co processor should always be placed close to the cpu but i am not sure how good apple s so called processor direct slot is when it comes to throughout does anyone know the answer to this or have any experience with the asante lciii ethernet adapter thanks in advance from what i ve heard the pds slot clock is only mhz to be compatible with the old lc style boards while the fpu socket close to the cpu is clocked at mhz i guess a board designed for the lciii can get a mhz clock from the extended pds socket real life thomas t rnblom email thomas tornblom nexus comm se snail mail communicator nexus ab phone box fax s uppsala sweden
