Infact the P4 quite bad >with raw FPU instructions. Relative to Athlon XP/MP chips anyway... Here is part of the list: PIV-3.06/3,7GHz 1374 Kn/s Erdo (Wortmann-PC) DualXeon 3,565 1326 kn/s Jens H. (Fritz8; 1 CPU) Athlon64 "3200+" 1333 KN/s Werner Schüle (2.2GHz; Serie 2.0 GHz!!) Ahtlon64 3400+ 1334 KN/s Norbert Baumann (2.2 GHz) I thought that the PIV is bad for chess so I am surprised that it is better than some athlon64 hardware. Only gcp came with slightly faster athlon64. Uri
