I had no idea whether an XT-clone rated at 10MHz NEC V20 CPU with an 8087 co-processor, or an XT machine with a 6MHz Intel 80286 CPU and an 80287 co-processor would be faster. In this quicky video, I consider the logic behind saying that because 10 is a good bit bigger a number than 6, that's better? Surely an 80287 would be better than an 8087? Right??? Well, the results may surprise you. Of course, the results are all 100% scientific. Legit scienciefied. The final benchmark which concludes everything is the old 'Which one loads up Leisure Suit Larry 3' test. Y'all know that one, right? ;) Sorry about the horrific flashing of the CGA monitor. Unfortunately there is nothing I can do about that ;( 0:00 Introduction 1:20 Which one switches on faster? 2:54 Running Check-it to benchmark 3:25 Full benchmark 4:04 Benchmark begins 4:16 XT/286 results 4:27 XT/10MHz results 4:50 Comparison 5:22 Run leisure suit larry to find out which is really faster ;) 5
