Go up one level in this thread


the flopteron is the fastest available: it is slower than an AMD 3000+ hence
also and AMD 3200+ and hence also the AMD 2800+; non barton;

a pentium 3.2 would scale to 1208: exactly the same as the flopteron:and thrash
the living daylights in every othe benchmark? (and we have neglected the
overclocking fctor which is an unknown quantity in the flopteron.

why buy a flopteron when you can buy and AMD 2400 ghz from aaron gordon? for $79
if u want to play chess and a pentium 4 for every other application?
