'''K6-III''' was the [[microarchitecture]] for [[AMD]]'s {{amd|K6-III}} line of microprocessors as a successor to the {{\\|K6-2}}. This short-lived microarchitecture served as a stopgap until {{\\|K7}} was released. K6-III was superseded by {{\\|K7}} in 1999.

== Technology ==
Like it's predecessor, {{\\|K6-2}}, K6-III microarchitecture-based chips were manufactured on AMD's [[0.25 μm process]], a five-layer-metal process technology using local interconnect and shallow trench isolation, at AMD's Fab 25 wafer fabrication facility in Austin, Texas. K6-III is designed using 21.3 million transistors, with the die packaged using C4 flip-chip interconnection technology in a 321-pin ceramic pin grid array (CPGA) package.
