因芯片出现故障问题,Cyrix公司在其200MHz6x86MX处理器发布后不久,就被迫回收已送出的数千片这种新款处理器芯片。在此之后,Cyrix公司严格执行CPU芯片的测试程序,从而排除了该处理器芯片的故障问题。 Cyrix公司的官员承认,这种于5月底发布的支持MMX技术的处理器芯片在工作时间不确定之后就会出现故障。Cyrix公司负责企业和渠道销售的副总裁Steve Tobak称:“故障出现的概率比我们预计 Due to a chip failure, Cyrix was forced to recycle thousands of these new processor chips that had been delivered shortly after its 200MHz6x86MX processor was released. Since then, Cyrix has been strictly implementing the CPU chip test program, thus eliminating the problem of the processor chip failure. Officials at Cyrix admit that such a processor chip, powered by MMX technology, released in late May, will fail after hours of work. Steve Tobak, Cyrix’s vice president of corporate and channel sales, said: "The probability of a failure is higher than we expected
