Neh.. Dual P3 1 Ghz = Uni P3 1 Ghz in almost any circumstances, unless the program is being written multithreaded. The only program is so well multithreaded is RC5 Client as far as I know. Q3A written multithreaded, but can't show it real potential in any Video card as far as I know.
It is like saying, you need 10 min to convert a WAV to MP3, it will still take 10 min to convert a WAV to MP3 on dual processor combo. Except, when you convert two WAV to MP3, it will also take 10 min on dual processor combo
Speed up? Neh.. very rare.. unless specifically written in multithreaded.
Do more stuff in the same amount of time? Yes.
