Mobos were 50MHz for the 8600 and 9600 series.
Mine is 46.7MHz.
Data path between the CPU and cache was 100MHz as you said but drops down to 50MHz for the memory and the rest of the machine. I suspect the PCI controller was the same "cruddy" one that others complain about in the 7300-9500s as their PCI ATA throughput is still limited to ~24 MB/sec reads and ~17 MB/sec writes.
I forgot all about that. Didn't early ATA cards have major issues with that PCI controller being mistimed and causing corruption?
