Benjie - Re: "If you look at your benchmarks there, you'll see that in floating-point intensive tests, the K7 actually blows away the PIII and even the highly-expensive Xeon. So it's just the FPUMark test itself that is flawed, "

I guess you can't read.

P3 Xeon 500 1024KB 2580
P3 500 2550
Cool K6-3 550 1860
K7 550 1590

Why was the K7 FPUmark SLOWER than a K63 FPU mark - run at the same clock frequency?

Why was the 550 MHz K7 FPUmark SLOWER than the 500 MHz Pentium /// And Pentium /// Xeon ?
