Professional OpenGL: SPECviewperf 7

While the Celeron hasn't been designed for use with complex 3D software, this professional benchmark is an excellent touchstone for determining what the practical differences are between the P4 and the Celeron. As the results show, though, what this benchmark mostly needs is an extremely fast graphics card. Design Review and ProEngineer are the only applications to benefit greatly from the Pentium 4.
