That's no surprise as it's a much later design. | + | * Testing proves that the Cirrus Logic card is **as-fast-as** or **faster-than** the Tseng Labs ET4000AX in every real-world benchmark.

In certain benchmarks this is noticeable, but in the real world many ISA cards would be way out-of-spec at such a setting; in that case the 10MHz ISA clock is a good, stable increase over the ISA ' |
