AMD Duron

The Lightscape test pretty much mimics the results we saw in the Data Explorer test from the previous page. The Duron is coming in as the fourth fastest processor in this comparison which is quite impressive considering that most of the CPUs/platforms on this list are priced much higher than what an equivalently configured Duron system would go for.

You CAD guys are going to want to look at the ProCDRS results as the Duron falls just behind the performance of a Pentium III 800/133 and just a hair behind the Athlon 700. Out of the top 10 performers in this test, the Duron 700 is the cheapest and ranks 6th, not bad for the savings you're getting and it's definitely not bad considering that the Duron's chief competition is resting at the very bottom of the chart.
