NiceGuy and Thread, Apologies if this has been posted....I'm behind in my reading: cpureview.com a snip: Athlon performance on scientific code Hi Bill, I follow your web site about 2-3 times a week, it is an excellent site I thank you very much for your effort. I thought you might like the result of some scientific benchmarks for the AMD-K7. I think it is an excellent performer under Linux. [see chart] [Editor: the "g98" result is extremely impressive; the Athlon 600 was 2.38x faster than the P3 500. The other tests did not show as conclusive an improvement, Mol/min provided a 1.26x advantage for the K7, and Mol/dyn only showed a 1.14x advantage. We should note that the K7 had a 20% clock speed advantage over the P3; and while a P3 600 would not provide a 20% faster time (10% is more likely) only the "g98" test shows an overwhelming speed advantage.]
