Elmer - Re: "Sharkey has some new benchmarks up which are pretty amazing. BAPco SYSmark2000 has just been released and it is truly devistating to AMD. Even 667MHz CuMines easily beat 750MHz Athlons. Look at ZD 3D WinBench 2000 as well. Athlon is totally destroyed!"

Clearly, Intel has been as busy as AMD !

Salting 800 MHz systems to Sharky !!!

That isn't fair - only AMD should be allowed to do that !

However, the test results are impressive - 750 and 800 MHz Coppermines with Camino Chips are very, very fast.

The 750 MHz Athlon is no slow-poke, and as you and PB have said before, this is a horse race - with the lead possibly changing over and over again.

For now, the lead is Intel's.
