Kyro2 bad in SPECviewperf

I was reading the article at hardwareanalysis.com about the Kyro2 and notived it performed really badly in SPECviewperf. *Link to article*
Now I know this means that it is no good for "professional" use, ie, CAD/CAM/CAE, but does that mean it will be bad for using these programs in 2D and/or 3D. I currently use AutoCAD for doing fairly simple 2D drawings on my celeron 300A with an 8mb i740 AGP card and it works perfectly. Will it perform as good with a kyro2 in an athlon 1.2Ghz system? Or is the Kyro2's SPECviewperf performance so bad that it will be slow for even 2D drawings?

Any info will be much appreciated.
 
I can play in software (2d) unreal and gp2 at 640x480x32 with more than 30 fps so I can say safely that have a fast 2d..

When I browse the net and move windows etc...it's smooth, when I am watching a dvd and choose to see a film in a windows and drag the windows the movies goes along without any hickup , when I drag windows the content of the windows goes smoothly (kyro is drawing when I am doing that)

I don't know what happened with specviewperf maybe that bench don't like kyro different aproach to graphics..
😉
maybe it's slower when doing some kinds of lines and/or circles (some 2d tasks) (I don't know, and I have a kyro 2 .
I don't have any cad program to test that...
sorry...
🙁
