250 million instructions per second that just sounds bad ass.

A clock sync rate of 250MHz doesn't mean 250 MIPS necessarily. Some instructions take more than one clock cycle.

yeah, yeah, yeah....

Temetka,
There were no 400mhz Mach V's. Some people have them because you can sometimes overclock the 350mhz models by relocating a resistor. Not all 350's can do it, though, and it is risky as the soldering requires a very steady hand and good eyes to prevent destroying the board.

/slaps self.

Forgot I overclocked mine a long time ago. I installed a small fan on it to help cool. Myabe I'll take it apart and re-apply some thermal paste also. Those 604's sure are spritely little chips.
