Does anyone still have a 1 GHz Pentium III?

I recently rebuilt a AMD 450 Mhz computer just for the hell of it ... well actually it was to try to see if I can reach a point where I have a chance against an engine. Unfortunately for me that still hasn't helped ... maybe I can find a 1 Mhz system on eBay

maybe having the engine run while a virus scan is being conducted will help.

I recently sent a 90 Mhz Pentium system to the computer shredder where the HD had frozen, but it was an otherwise working system. You missed it by that much.

Thanks for your offer, but I am onlylooking for a very specific system.

1 GHz
Pentium III

And I don't need it "in hand", just someone to run a test on it.

I only mention this because it is the baseline used for the Fritz9 benchmark, and I'd like to adopt this same standard in my checkers benchmark at http://www.liquidnitrogenoverclocking.c ... ults.shtml

Maybe someone has a 500 MHz Pentium III, 256MB RAM. I just gave one away recently. The adjusted results might still be useful on such a half-speed system.

I have 2 1.2 Ghz Celeron Tualatin systems (12x100, 256KB L2), one set up. Although called Celeron, they certainly qualify as a full PIII because most PIII systems sold ran at 100 FSB and 256KB L2. The later Tualatins ran 133 FSB and 512KB L2.

Anyway, the one I have set up, I can not underclock to 1Ghz. But the one in storage has a much more tweakable mobo, and it just might.

One of my points that I wasn't clear with until now, is that using PIII 1Ghz as a baseline can be rather vague because there is a wide variety of machines with probably 10-15% leeway in performance due to architectural differences in both the mobo chipsets and the chip versions themselves.

I've got a Dell Laptop that has a 1GHz P3 if that's any use. Running Windows XP with 512 MB of Ram that I can easily fire up. I'll try and find some time to download the file and run it this weekend.

I just tried, and wasn't successful. I got it running at 1 Ghz, but doing so caused weird settings for SDRAM and PCI frequencies because the mobo didn't have the proper divider for an 83 FSB. It could handle 66 fine, but not 83. So, I can only run it at 800, 1200, or 1600 Mhz. Sorry.

Just wondering what part of 1 GHz Pentium III is so hard to understand?

Justin, the application needs about 650 MB to run, so it will either virtualize the rest (and slow it down tremendously) or not run at all.

Thanks though, I just don't want you to go through any unnecessary work if you don't happen to have that much RAM in your system.

Easy to understand. Hard to obtain. Alternate solutions offered. No offense intended.

I still have a dual PIII 600 Mhz, Maybe I should boot it after I air dust the inside. Use Tiny Core or some other Linux Distro on it.
