Go up one level in this thread


The PIII is faster than an athlon for crafty, I think thats correct. But if one
overclocks an intel processor there will be almost no performance boosts ie a
800 mhz PIII will get less than 1% boost from the first 5% clockspeed increase
and then steadily less than that per next 5% percent. A new athlon (not athlon
classic) will get a near linear increase for a high overclocking percentage. And
the athlon and duron are now as easy to overclock as intel processors.
