Anything else to back that up? From what I have observed, the 750FX is faster than the 7451 and 7455 when Altivec is not used. At the same clock frequency, mind you.
When you launch an altivec accelerated Moovid you will notice it.
Well... you'll notice it when you really want speed (3d stuff, video editing converting and playing etc).
Don't tell me that Altivec is useless please ;-)
It sounds as if Eyetech had lots and lots of G3s they bought 2 years ago for the A1-XE, all the customers choosed a g4 and now they don't know what to do with the room full of (now slow and expensive) G3s
A new G4 cpu is cheaper than 170pounds. A g3 may be ok if the computer was cheaper
I'm quite angry with the price of these boards... and the lack of a G4 option? I can't understand it!
I hope I don't sound trollish but I'm quite angry and dissapointed.
