              I'm amazed though 'bout the difference between a 12.7G and the top processors, here I am thinking I was still almost top of the line with my 9 month old 2000XP AMD.

              Nice to see a benchmark about something else then FPS

                    Of course, an EXTREME edition of Civ3 will pop out IN YOUR FACE and proceed to beat the **** out of you with EXTREME Spearmen.

                        Yes, but the L3 adds 5-15% more to make do with.

                          What do you do with that? Play civ3 five seconds faster?

                          3.2 GHz is just a number with three letters after it. Do not be fooled.

                            I plan to play Half-Life 2 at a decent framerate.
