- Has anyone actually GOT an A620 with 4 megs yet to kill this thread with some
- real facts?
-
- I have A1200 with Blizzard 1220/4, which is 5.14 mips using sysinfo. When I saw
- the review of the A620 I thought it would be the same speed as my machine for
- most applications, but MUCH faster for rendering as it has an fpu as standard.
-
- So, MIPs rating for an A620 anyone?
