<font color=red>1.13Ghz Piii looks weak to me only a 1.5% gain over a 1Ghz T-bird and using SSE too. LMAO sharkyextreme.com Milo "Benchmarks Summary The scalability of the Pentium III keeps extending the life of Intel's “Coppermine” core. Will this be the last Pentium III? How will AMD's response (no doubt due out soon) fair? For now, the 1.13GHz is the fastest CPU in town. Or is it? First of all, quantities will be low and locating one could be harder than a pair of black and gold Vivian Westwood trousers. Second, at around $900, it's not exactly cheap, now is it? And if you've got your mind set on one, then expect to pay in the high $3,000 range for a full system (finding one on sale by itself will probably mean waiting until Q3). We'd have liked/expected a little more from the benchmarks. Despite an impressive show in the 3D Winbench Processor and 3D Mark 2000 CPU tests, in some cases, the performance increase over the 1GHz Pentium III falls a good deal short of 10%. No doubt you folks would have liked a little more… Call it what you want- the “post-1GHz unenthusiastic-disorder”, but we're looking for something more exciting than “this week's fastest CPU by a margin of 2-5%. sharkyextreme.com
