this is not what i have tested. and i have tested several.
set up the same chess position for each program. set the hash about
the same for each program. after you test these two that you talk about,
then come back with the post.
my experience with the fritzmark test, the 1500mhz P4 was about the same in kns
as the 1050mhz amd. the 1700mhz P4 is about the same kns as a 1200mhz amd.
