Milo, I was doing a little looking around and boy did I get a laugh out of AMD's benchmark page for TTurd. Take a look at SYSmark2000 where TTurd just barely nosed out a CuMine by just .25%, no that's not 25% but .25%. A reading of the fine print shows just how phoney the test really is. #1 AMD Athlon Processor based systems utilize files (d3dim700.dll and d3dref.dll) featuring modifications to be released in a future version of DirectX. #2 Compaq motherboard planned for purchase availability in 2H 2000. #3 nVidia Detonator 5.23 driver not currently available. What a laugh!!! Phoney scores using unavailable DirectX, unavailable motherboard and unavailable nVidia drivers!!!! And all they could do with the new ThunderTurd 7.5 generation processor on the all new 3 years and 8 months in the development Copper process is just barely squeek by an old outdated 6th generation CuMine!!!!! You know what else?????? All the test scores are phoneys using the same unavailable hardware and software!!!!!! Hahahahahahahaha
