For some reason I don't have any QXL values in my database, but according to http://sol.spaceports.com/~vader/text/bench.htm it's QXL 20MHz Dhrystone 6578 Dhrystones/Sekunde Bogomips 9,58 Bogomips QXL2 25MHz Dhrystone 8620 Dhrystones/Sekunde Bogomips 13.42 Bogomips This is a lot less from your figures, which by the way almost resemble the ones of a Q40 (36443) and that shouldn't really be the case. Mind you, don't do any tests in a Windows DOS box, the timer rate is all wrong there. Also on the QXL there quite some factors that can affect the speed pretty much, like the DISP_UPDATE rate (which should be set to IIRC 10,10 if you want a fair comparison). According to the figures on the page a K6-III 400 is comparable to the QXL. But generally one can say that the QXL has decent power but even a much slower QPC usually feels faster because of the better IO response. Marcel
