Dear Fingolfen:

That increasing slope was due to PCI/AGP overclocking. FSB increases do more for performance than multiplier increases. In other benchmark fests, the scaling seen is less between 1.8 and 1.7 than 1.7 and 1.5 relative to clock rate. When comparing FSB overclocks, Athlon actually has a higher scale factor. Athlon does not need FSB overclocks to go faster but, P4 needs them. That is why my Tbird is faster at 1425/150 than at 1466/133 overall.
