yep, right you are, just went and checked... the 2700 must have been the score of the 1.4 I had before this one.
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 6 model : 6 model name : AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1800+ stepping : 2 cpu MHz : 1538.840 cache size : 256 KB fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr 6 mce cx8 9 sep mtrr pge 14 cmov pat 17 19 mmxext mmx fxsr 3dnowext 3dnow bogomips : 3073.64 thats on mdk7.2 at present, with most of the otherboard unrecognised.. don't know if that makes a difference or not. the system is completely standard, no overclocking, (though I have head I can get close to 1900mhz from this chip.) with 256mb DDR Sdram.. They a good heart to any system do Athlons. :-) As far as I know, bogomips makes no use of SSE instructions, that would make a difference if it did I think. The Athlon XP has full PIII SSE instructions I believe. still, its not a shabby score.. rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Tom Brinkman Sent: Sunday, 2 December 2001 4:29 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [expert] 8.1 Piece of Crap!

A Tbird 1.33 should get ~2700 > Its not the brand of mainboard that matters, its the chipset, > timings ect.. I don't believe so. Yes timings and chipsets are important, but even more so is the engineering quality, design, and construction of the mobo. You'll never get a PCChips board, for instance, that equals a Soyo. Brand matters _VERY_ much, for performance, stability, and reliability http://www.linuxhardware.org/features/01/11/30/1626230.shtml Back to the subject, this thread'll be back in a few months, but it'll read "8.2 Piece of Crap!, I'm going back to 8.1". Much the same way we endured "7.2 Piece of Crap!, I'm going back to 7.1" a while back. <current version Mandrake sux> I'm stayin with/going back to <older version> posts have always plagued the mailing lists and news groups since I started usin Mandrake 6.0.
