Anyone know if an Athlon XP 2000+(1667mhz) is 2x faster than a Thunderbird 1ghz for rendering?

Anyone have tested ?

Thanks.

1658 seconds for a Single 1000 Tbird

976 seconds for a Single 2100+ XP

So no. Its not twice as fast. A 2400+ XP should be though. (2.0 gigahertz hehe)

No Motherboards support Dual Thunderbird. Only Dual Athlon MP's are currently supported.

The Asus one is nice. MSI also seems to have a rather decent one.
