Nothing is amazing here.
It was already posted here by jouni aski that shredder earns more speed for the
athlon(shredder is 4.73 times faster when Deep Fritz is only 3.4 times faster).

Here is a better estimate based on the ssdf results and jouni aski's numbers for
the gain for doubling the speed.

Deep Fritz   40.78=72*ln2/ln3.4
gambittiger  56.76=80*ln2/ln2.67
tiger14      50.11=71*ln2/ln2.67
shredder5.32 44.16=99*ln2/ln4.73
Junior7      30.93=55*ln2/ln3.43
gandalf4.32h 59.02=142*ln2/ln5.3

Note that the errors in the rating are too big to get a conclusion but if you
should guess based on the data than Gandalf and Gambittiger seem to earn the
most from fast hardware and not Shredder.
