Dave, no these times are better because the 604e at the same clock speed is faster than a pentium pro at the same clock speed (byte magazine article recently) and much faster than a pentium. a 603e is roughly equal to a pentium at same clock speed. The piwg benchmarks as i recall showed no gain in performace between 3.05 and 3.07 in this area. (i could be wrong its been several months since i looked at the numbers). another interesting thing from the piwgs (i have the graphs for these) is that my 120 mhz 8500 beats our 150 mhz SGI indy in most all piwg tests, and my 180mhz upgrade to the same 8500 boosted it to the point where it beats out our 250mhz onyx in most all tests. jim
