Re: benchmark mess... The athlon is at least competitive with Coppermine when Athlon is running: 100MHZ ram 1/3 speed L2 cache a rock solid stable but slow chipset. Coppermine can almost keep up but it's running: 400MHZ ram (expensive, stability and availability problems) full speed level 2 cache (which may put a brick wall in the way of clock increases) a fast but not very stable chipset In 3 months: Athlon moves to 200 and 266MHZ ram 1/2 speed L2 (why put a full speed cache brick wall in your way if you don't need it?) Faster chipsets and multiprocessor chipsets. The new year is going to be a challenge for Intel, and AMD is going to be able to make money. Dan
