Just benchmarked my 3dfx-Glide machine that I built a while ago:

Pentium II-400 (4x100), Gigabyte GA-6BXE (Intel 440BX), 512MB (2x256) PC-100 CAS2
6m 20.434s

I'm honestly not too satisfied with the results, seeing as jwt27's PII-350 was about 40 seconds faster.

What OS are you using? Apparently using 9x results in about 25% slower results or so then when using an NT OS

Maybe we should split the results up?

Whats missing in your collections?

thats not essentially the case. win9x results may be less consistant than nt versions, but the performance loss should be no more than 1~2% if you can get it running correctly.
1. optimize your bios settings for performance
2. clean up your windows and load least auto-running programs possible, and don't run any other programs when running superpi
3. for win9x, run some high load applications such as 3dmark or quake to warm it up before running superpi.

Cool, haven't been here in a couple months and this thread is still going! If I got time in the next couple days, I'll do a test on my new undervolted mobile-A64 3000+ @1GHz 0.875v.

How important are the FSB and the memory for SuperPI? On a 430TX-based board I got around 12m22s with a K6-2/400 (compared to a littler over 9m with an MVP3-based board in the original post)...

One difference is the FSB (my CPU runs 6*66), and then my Win98SE might be running outside cacheable RAM (I have 128MB on my system).

I'm still running my dual 550/1MB P3 Xeons for the moment, until I can swap their heatsinks onto my 700/1MBs, but I am curious to see if there is any difference between the SuperPi run I executed while running my Intel MS440GX board, and the ASUS XG-DLS board I'm now running. Might do another run before I move to the faster processors just to see if there is. Both boards are based on the 440GX chipset, so I'm not really expecting much difference between the two, but who knows?

FSB matters much, but running outside cacheable RAM matters MORE.

My Pentium MMX at 262Mhz and 75Mhz FSB (430HX) gives 10m 37.605s [latest score]. Taking into account that EDO is generally slower than SDRAM, your system's performance is hugely affected by running outside cacheable RAM.
