AMD Duron 750

As is obvious by the benchmarks, the Awadvs-03 viewset is a benchmark of raw CPU power and isn't affected by L2 cache speed as much as it is by L2 cache size.

The Duron makes it very clear that value doesn't mean slow in this situation, something that even the overclocked Celeron can't do as is evident by its placement at the very bottom of the chart.

The performance under the DRV-06 viewset seems to be more dependent on video card and platform than the CPU, explaining the relatively small differences between CPUs in the benchmark.

The DX-05 viewset is another case in which the 200MHz FSB (100MHz DDR) of the Athlon combined with the complexity of its core helps achieve the performance advantage over the Pentium III and the Celeron.
