Hello Harald, Actually I expected CSTal-2.03 to do better since it had the Athlon TB 900 which raised it's nps up over 26K/nps. It only gets around 7K/nps on the PII-333. CSTal is supposed to come alive with faster hardware. But remember this is only 6 games and it could easily change if 6 more were played. I was just hopeing for some real fireworks and not much exciting happened. I rember CSTal-2 gave Hiarcs 7.32 a pretty good fight when CSTal-2 was running on my K6-3-450 so I expect if more games were played it would produce a better showing. Anyway I don't have many options right now with my hardware ratio. I need to upgrade my PII-333. Maybe in a couple of weeks I will order another MB/CPU package. Jim
