Scumbria - Re: "My guess is that most of the performance increase is due to an improved graphics processor and lower memory latencies across the 100 MHz bus, rather than the 400 MHz CPU core.

Don't bet on it.

You need all three components to speed up simultaneously - and Intel makes all 3 - 100 MHz Chip Set, AGP Graphics Chips and 400 MHz CPUs.

And they will keep getting faster.

And they will keep getting cheaper.

Re: I would be surprised if Winstone 98 shows the same performance gains as Bapco."

Why ?

Wait.

There will be a flood of testing and benchmarks coming forward in the next few days and weeks and months.
