Funny how Sharky Extreme comes up with much closer results for Quake 2:

www2.sharkyextreme.com


Quake 2 Timedemo 1
------------------
K6-3 500 MHz (Kryotech): 110.3
Pentium III 500 MHz: 108.6
Difference: 1.6%

Quake 2 Massive 1
-----------------
K6-3 500 MHz (Kryotech): 79.5
Pentium III 500 MHz: 79.0
Difference: 0.6%

Quake 2 Crusher
---------------
K6-3 500 MHz (Kryotech): 50.2
Pentium III 500 MHz: 50.9
Difference: -1.4%


All these tests were done with the Quantum X-24 Voodoo2 SLI PCI card, so this card along with Quake 2 should be the "best-case scenario" for the K6-3 and 3DNow. Pretty good results for the K6-3, but it's not the 30% advantage that KryoTech claims.

And remember that the Pentium III enhancements aren't even used in this test.
