Does anyone know how fast the Athlon FX-53 would process a unit?  How about the Athlon 3800+.  Thanks for your help.

My Athlon 64 3200 at 2.0GHz and socket 754 does a Classic unit in 90 to 100 mins and a BOINC unit in 130 mins give a take a few either way. Both the FX-53 and 3800 should be about 15% - 20% faster.

My Classic is about 20 or so minutes slower, are you overlocking?
What MB are you using?

The motherboard's a Gigabyte K8NNXP with a nForce 3 150 chipset. I normally do run overclocked with the bus at 220MHz, the memory at 440MHz and the cpu at 2.2 GHz. I've been running like that for some time and now I can't remember if those times I quoted are pre-overclocking or not. Adding on 10% to account for the overclock puts them more or less on a par with yours, so I'd guess they're probably overclocked times.
