  We study the finite temperature transition in QCD with three flavors of equal
masses using the R and RHMC algorithm on lattices with temporal extent
N_{\tau}=4 and 6. For the transition temperature in the continuum limit we find
r_0 T_c=0.429(8) for the light pseudo-scalar mass corresponding to the end
point of the 1st order transition region. When comparing the results obtained
with the R and RHMC algorithms for p4fat3 action we see no significant
step-size errors down to a lightest pseudo-scalar mass of m_{ps} r_0=0.4.
