Please let me quote the official explanation from INTEL C++ team: "We did of course not test on the K7 processor, so whether it is slower or faster on the K7 processor than on the intel processor we do not know". I'll throw you an exe. Take into account that the linux equivalent is another 5% to 12.5% faster than that one is for the K7. Bob isn't awake yet. he'll get soon. Crafty as usual has an error when compiling under intel. Your first posting here said you used the default compile from bob. how the HELL can you compile for intel 5.0 if the default 1815 source doesn't compile at all here? >Like I said Vince, throw me any EXE you want, and I guarantee the plain 'ol exe >off Hyatt's site will beat any Crafty EXE you can give. > >I used the beloved Intel 5.0 to build an exe for the AMD, and it was still >slower.
