A program like RISC 2500 would certainly play well at PII 450 MHz speed. The speedup is approximately 2*450/14=64. The rating of RISC 2500 is approx 2236 (Eric Hallsworths Selective Search) so if a doubling of speed gives 40 ELO (a conservative estimate) this would give RISC 2500 an approximate rating of 2476. I actaully think it would be higher as the RISC 2500 is a pretty advanced beast and included many of the tricks used by modern programs (eg null move). Steve Maughan
