First of there are plenty of benchmark programs on Aminet.

Secondly, what speed does SysInfo report? It may say it's an 040, but
do the MIPS benchmark and see what it says.

Thirdly, what does it matter what benchmark programs say? Everyone
know they usual mean little in real life situations, I suggest you
test your new system out by downloading some CPU heavy things of
Aminet, like an MP3 player or a 3D game or something

See ya :)
