Re: "This 21264A 700MHz Alpha scores 39.1 in SPECint95 and 34.7 on SPECint_base95. Are the CU-Never-Mind scores at Intel's website SPECint or SPECint_base scores? If the former, the Alpha is faster." The SPEC score most commonly used is a "baseline" score, meaning the compiler switches were the same for all tests run. Alpha's baseline score of 34.7 is below Intel's baseline score of 35.3. AMD's website shows a 700MHz Athlon scoring 31.7. Adjusting for the 33MHz speed difference, the CuMine would still be ~6.5% faster than Athlon. CuMine - fastest integer processor in the Universe EP
