The 320 and 520 are 20MHz, and the 320H is 25MHz.  None of them have L2 
cache.  A good rule of thumb is that they are roughly as fast as a 
PowerPC 601 of twice the clock speed.  (They're actually slightly slower 
than that, but not noticeably so.)

I don't remember clearly, but it may never have been supported by the 
default install.  You might have needed to install drivers for it.

I've only ever used the IrisVision MCA cards with PS/2s.
