I was just wondering if anyone knows how the game will perform on the
new Intel Pentium MMX chip? Could it be that the game was designed to
take advantage of this chip? Or with a progression in chip design like
this in mind?
I was just wondering. Does anybody have an idea?

GP2 is not MMX-enhanced (no current games are). However it should
perform the same as other programs on an MMX processor, which is to say
it should be about 10% faster than it is on a similarly clocked non-MMX
CPU.

It will run approx 10% quicker than the equivalent speed P5. This is
simply due to the improved design of the MMX chips. GP2 does not have any
specific MMX code in it.
