I'm disappointed no one took interest in suppling data to my questions.

I felt it might help people in seeing both AMD processors, and Intel processors,
especially the Pentium 4 processor, compared in this way.

EG; If a AMD Athlon at 1.2GHz say does about 1100-1200KN/s how does the P4 at
1.5GHz do? Does it hit over 1000KN/s wich would roughly be a PIII "coppermine"
cpu or is it lower or higher?
I'll make it easier.
Could people who have a P4 and Fritz6 show their Fritzmark on their machines?
I feel it will shed some light at least in regards to chess, how fast the P4
actually computes when running a chess programm.
Thanks again.
