Intel Pentium III E FC-PGA (Socket-370)

The overall performance of the i810E/FC-PGA platform under NT is also respectable with the i810E bringing the overall performance down a few percent from the same CPU running on a BX board with a GeForce (or any other current generation AGP card for that matter).

Render Times in Seconds (Lower is Better)

The FC-PGA on the i810E manages to outpace the older Pentium III on a BX board, if the FC-PGA platform is cheaper (and it should be) then it is beginning to make sense as a low cost, high performance alternative to the Celeron and older Pentium II/IIIs.
