- I am planning to purchase either the MX1200-16mhz 68881 board or the
- 25mhz 68882 board.
-
- There is a $70 price difference between these two boards for the A1200.
-
- For raytracing/rendering applications, what will be the "real world"
- speed difference between the 2 processors. Obviouosly, the 25mhz 68882
- is faster, but how much of a rayttrace/vistapro rendering uses
- the FPU?
-
- Thanks.........
