>From what I have heard and seen, matching steppings in PII/PIII isn't as
important as it was with PPros and Pentium MMX/Pentiums. I have a Dual
P-133 (oc from 120s)that is running just fine with the steppings off by 6.
one is stepping 6, the other is steping 12. while this may just have been
dumb luck, I dont think that one stepping diffrence on a PII is going to
matter that much.
