My 1200 Athlon scores 760 Tigermark and 340 kn/s
My 850 Duron scores 525 Tigermark

so I think your numbers are typical since the Fritz engines score higher kn/s
than the Tiger engines. Also I think the Chessbase scores may be with Fritz5 and
that is a really fast thinker so kn/s may be down in Fritz 7
