Yes the Benchmark is probably 2 years old, but comparing the performance gain
from a Pentium III 800 Mhz and a Kryotech 1 Ghz ( which was an Athlon using a
special cooling systen like a refridgerator which allowed the Athlon to be
overclocked) was only 2 points gain.  Now the question is does Rebel Century 4
proportionaly show an increase in performance, or does it truncate when it
reaches certain microprocessor speed.?
