you write that nonsense all the time -> maybe you READ your forum ? The
programmer of Axon told it SEVERAL times, that it is NOT optimized for Athlon at
all, the Athlons are simply better for chess. E.g. my XP2700+ with internal
2.166 GHz performs like a 3.4 GHz PIV - which we can not buy right now...
clockwise Athlons are WAY better...

But don't forget the best: Opterons are BEASTs for computerchess, they beat
everything else in performance even when you use only the 32 bit mode...
Yesterday the Zappa programmer reports me, that his Operon 1.8 GHz is of about
double the speed for his program then an Athlon XP2700+/2.166 GHz in 64bit mode.
Unbelieveable - even with lower clockspeed it is 2 times as fast... AMD rules...
