Description
AMD K6-2/300AFR 300MHz Socket 7 CPU 32KB L1 Cache MMX 3DNow!
The AMD K6-2/300AFR is a 300MHz Socket 7 microprocessor from AMD's K6-2 family, manufactured in 1998. This processor runs at 300MHz with a 66MHz front-side bus and a 4.5x clock multiplier, packaged in a 321-pin ceramic staggered pin-grid array (PGA) designed for standard Socket 7 motherboards. The K6-2 was a competitive desktop processor of the late 1990s, supporting AMD's 3DNow! SIMD instruction set alongside Intel-compatible MMX instructions.

Applications
The AMD K6-2 series was designed as AMD's response to Intel's Pentium MMX and early Pentium II processors. These chips were direct Socket 7 drop-in upgrades for late-1990s motherboards and are commonly sought for retro computing projects and vintage PC restorations. The K6-2 remains a recognizable and collectible processor from the era when AMD was establishing itself as a competitive force in the x86 market. This processor supports standard Socket 7 platforms and is compatible with most Super Socket 7 motherboards, making it a viable option for enthusiasts building or upgrading 1990s-era systems. The 3DNow! instruction set provided early SIMD acceleration for graphics and multimedia applications of that generation.
This AMD K6-2/300AFR 300MHz Socket 7 processor has been tested and is in good working order. The ceramic PGA package and all 321 gold pins are intact with no visible bending or missing pins. The unit shows normal cosmetic wear consistent with prior use. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions. Please note: We have multiple units in stock — yours may not be the one shown in the photos, however, it will be similar in condition and function.
