Elmer, <So you are saying the SpecFP95 scores improved from ~16 for a 600MHz PIII to ~25 for 600MHz CuMine without the use of SIMD instructions? That's a 56% improvement. Is that correct????> The foil said there was a 20% increase from a Pentium III 600B to 600EB. I assume that meant the 600B was also benefitting from cache-streaming instructions and the 820/RDRAM platform. By the way, one correction here. The scores are SPECint_base95 and SPECfp_base95. So to extrapolate numbers here: SPECint_base95 SPECfp_base95 -------------- ------------- PIII 600, no SSE 24.6 14.9 PIII 600B, w/ SSE 25.9 20.8 PIII 600EB, w/ SSE 29 25 (The PIII 600 numbers were taken from the Dell Precision Workstation 410. I don't know what the highest numbers should be for that processor.) Tenchusatsu
