3DMark 2001 :

Okay, so you're not going to win any speed awards, but that's not really the issue. What should be evident is that the scores on both DroneZ and 3DMark make the Duron 1.3 a genuinely viable option for even a relatively demanding games platform. The 1.2 gave the first indications that the Duron was about to evolve into a great processor for gamers and general users alike and the 1.3 finally has the "feel" of a genuine option. If your whole life doesn't revolve around the size of your benchmark scores, the 1.3 is actually a strong contender for almost any job that doesn't need the very fastest on the market.

I find it remarkable that you can now buy a Duron processor capable of running even the most computationally intensive games out there, remarkable and strangely gratifying.
