The FPU on the Cyrix 5x86-120 is, on average, about 15% faster than the AMD X5-160's when Cyrix enhancement FP_Fast is set to 1.

So?

What exactly are you trying to tell us?

You reply to a thread that is from 1996, so whatever you think you've 
added can't be very relevant since this is 18 year later.

Even worse, you can't even bother quoting what you are replying to. so 
there is absolutely no context.

Just because google lets you reply to old posts doesn't mean there is any 
good reason to.
