multi tasking or multi threading? BIG difference...

good point..

the AMD doesn have some frontside bus kinda thing?

it seems you are correct.

the adm chip has many other new features besides 64bit support...this is why you see the improvements accross the board...the 64 bit support isn't really important for typical computer use right now...

most benchmarks place the amd at the top due to these improvements...but intel's hyper threading technology is also very alluring...I chose intel for this reason...huge performance increases when running multiple applications simultaneously...something most benchmarks don't test...something gaming geeks and everyone else who really uses the chips to their full potential don't care as much about either. Running virtual servers on a single machine ( in my case), it's proven beneficial...

I can't imagine anyone really being able to discern the difference bw two similar amd and p4 equipped systems under typical use. I would say if you are looking for the absolute fastet chip under typical use, it's the amd...if you run multiple processor intensive applications simultaneoulsy, go for the intel.

ok now im reading that socket 478 for the P4's will be replaced sometime in 2004..

Thats nt good. Means in 2006 when you want to upgradee chips you are still stuck with 478 socket

well these tests show that for encoding (not even multi tasking)
that the P4 is faster!

Just go with a load Mac.

Thats the way I am going for my next desktop purchase.

ok i found my pc i want..

Now i need to figure out if I want to buy it or whore myself and see if someone wants to buy it for me

thats not quite right, as I've yet to see one of the EE chips IN a machine.

still the top line p4 does seem 30+ seconds faster. I'd be curious to know what mode these procs were running in to do the tests..;)

I don't trust tests run by sites and magazines that rely on advertising money from those companies whose products they are testing.

These tests can all be designed to skew results in favor of one or the other also.

Go to a store and do a side by side with the apps you run. That's the best way to really see the difference.
