Gary, re: Cirruslvr, Re: Yeah, but I was comparing Athlon 650 vs. PIII 650. Yes I know. But it seems that the overall system design has a significant impact on the specfp95 score(as the CPU is only 17Mhz faster). That was Cirruslvr's point -- when RAMBUS is reasonably priced, AMD's platform will support it, or a better alternative and the SPEC scores will be a draw. As for now, the RAMBUS-based scores are basically irrelevant because of its high price and non-improvement in real application performance. Petz
