Mike - RE: "If that is a real Willy, then we may have seen our first real Willy benchmark (11,483 3Dmarks). This is about 5% faster than what my back of the envelope calculation says an SDRAM based PC133 T-bird would get at 1.4 Ghz."


Don't forget this may be an early Willy sample. If you remember when Athlon benchmarks first came out, the AThlon's FPU come out slower than the K6-2 in a case or two, and significantly slower than PIII. Of course, we now know how great the AThlon's FPU is.

I wouldn't make conclusions about Willy's performance this early. Otherwise, what you say may turn out to sound really dumb months from now - Message 9736899
