  Kind of depends on what test you go by...

  Some recent 233 test, using M-Tech MoBo's, 32MB SDRAM, Matrox Mystique
220 4MB, Quantum Ultra DMA HD, Win95 OSR2 @ 1024x768-64K:

		R542		R558		M628
		6x86MX PR233	K6 233		iPII 233

  Note: Cache check results are strange with the iPII due to its design,
iPII seems to not want to run PCBench 9.0.
