Elmer - RE: "Doug, the Athlon has a 200MHz FSB(port) so there's no way to have them running at the same speed but the first non Xeon or Gigamine is a PIII running at 450MHz with 100MHz FSB. I don't know how it runs that fast and there's nothing special about it. Another typical 733MHz PIII with 133MHx FSB runs over 1 hour faster than a 750 Athlon. We even see overclocked Celerons running neck n neck with Athlons of the much higher speed."

SETI is clearly heavily L2 cache dependent (first speed then size). Those Athlons in the chart have 1/2 speed L2 cache so the Intel processors with on chip L2 cache easily beat the Athlon. I'd like to see what Thunderbird could do, but I think Cumine would still be faster because its cache is a better design.
