Niceguy, look, now THAT is cool!!

I know, I am boring you with all the reports about the daily top 10 bestseller list of the German online hardware vendor K&M Elektronik. And I don't want to bother you with the same reports over and over again. But today is something special. For the first time, K&M Elektronik issued not only a (general) top 10 list (with three AMD entries...) but also a TOP 10 LIST SPECIALLY FOR PROCESSORS.

And what do you think, which are the 10 winners? He he, look for yourself: kmelektronik.de

Okay, to make it easier for you, here they are:

1 AMD ATHLON K7 900 Thunderbird
2 AMD DURON 700
3 AMD DURON 800
4 AMD K6-2 500
5 AMD ATHLON K7 800 Thunderbird
6 AMD ATHLON K7 1000 Thunderbird
7 AMD DURON 750
8 AMD DURON 650
9 AMD ATHLON K7 700 Thunderbird
10 IBM/CYRIX 6x86 MX PR300 233 MHz

Isn't it funny: The good old Cyrix beats all the Intel CPUs....

Hmmm, may not be an easy quarter for Intel :-)

Peter

Re: "Should placate Dell for about a month or two, when the reality of "sluggish P4 performance" falls prey to the perky performance of the "spry Athy"..."

Maybe Dell knew that the Pentium 4 would be readily available and that the 1.2 GigaThumper would be - shall we say - delayed just a weeeeee bit.
