    Somewhere there is a list of the multiplying factors for processor equivalents, and I thought it was in this forum but I can't seem to find it. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Has it been updated with the most recent CPUs?

    you mean stuff like "Athlon 64 MHz * 1.6 = Pentium 4 MHz"?

    Dunno, never seen a list like that. In any case, it's not particularly accurate, because there are a lot more unknowns than that, and the result depends on how you test.
