Scot, Well thanks for the benchmarks. Very dissapointing numbers if real. Shame the AMD folks are not supporting AGP4x etc. Oh well. regards, Kash

Scot - RE: "Saw on AMDZONE that a German site has some kx133 benchmarks..the table just doesn't post well..." Thanks for the link. The Quake fastest and Expendable 640x480 scores look pitiful compared to the 750 chipset. Anand and Tom have said in their tests of processors that Quake fastest and tests at 640x480 test the true performance of the processor and the quality of the video card driver. It seems improbable for a chipset to lower the perormance of a platform by 40%, therefore I think the drivers aren't up to par. But why should the a chipset need new video card drivers in the first place... Good thing the 750 now has Super Bypass!
