Comparative CPU Benchmarks From 1995 to 2004

Posted by timothy on from the difference-engine dept.

Lux writes "The guys over at Tom's Hardware Guide have been busy recently! They've compared over a hundred different architectures dating all the way back to the Pentium 1 in one huge benchmarking effort. Looking to upgrade an older system? Unlike most benchmarks, which compare modern systems to other modern systems, these charts can help you figure out if the cost of upgrading is worth the speedup or if you should hold off for a bit longer."

    It's actually below freezing, heavily overcast and dull as hell. Now I know why everyone with an IQ under 150 is irritable and gloomy. What is it with people and the weather that their moods are totally dependant on sunshine for "feeling" good?

    these people depress me, not the weather!
