Cyrix III is an x86-compatible Socket 370 CPU. VIA Technologies launched the processor in February 2000. VIA had purchased both Centaur Technology and Cyrix. Cyrix III was to be based upon a core from one of the two companies.

VIA这颗名为CyrixIII的CPU，1级指令缓存和数据缓存各64KB，与W3相同，但依然没有加入2级缓存（两年前的Celeron 300A已经有2级缓存了），频率也仅为533～677MHz，性能相对较低。 世间本没有魔法，只是我们还不了解，导致让它看起来像有魔法一样。 下期预告：三篇文章基本介绍了一下曾经在市场上活跃过的民用cpu，后面会介绍一些不常见的CPU和公司。 上期回顾： 杨华：芯片相关-- Cpu历史--intel系列. 杨华：芯片相关-- Cpu历史--AMD系列.

2024年7月3日 · VIA Cyrix III, later renamed to C3, is a family of x86-compatible microprocessors. The first generation of Cyrix III CPUs was based on a Joshua core developed by Cyrix. This core was quickly replaced by Samuel core designed by Centaur Technology.

Cyrix计划之后计划推出整合图形（2D/3D）机能、内存控制器、共享二级缓存的SoC「 Cayenne 」，支持双通道Direct RDRAM的高速CPU「Jalapeno」，以及再之后称为「Serrano」的细节不明的代号。资料说在1998年10月的MicroProcessor论坛上是如此公开了路线规划的。
