what's faster?

AMD 2200 or P4 2.4?

Is there some kind of chart that shows ALL of the CPU's Intel and AMD and where they are in terms of performance?

Thanks
Ryan

Going off of AMD's naming convention alone, the 2200 would perform as good as a P4 2.2Ghz. This is, of course, inaccurate, but not in the direction that would make the 2200 better than the P4 2.4Ghz, hehe.

Thanks for the reply.. really appreciate it.. That chart helps a TON. although I have no idea what those numbers are AFTER the P4 2.8 .................

I think bus speed and Ram speed, but I have no idea how to tell any of that since one is a DELL (the P4) and one is an OLD home built from a friend (AMD 2200)

I am just looking and it still looks like the slowest P4 is faster than the fastest AMD though so I am going to start using the P4 then as the secondary machine.

Which numbers?

The slowest P4 is not faster than the fastest Athlon XP.

What I meant was the AMD 2200 or P4 2.4 speeds. The slowest 2.4 is still faster than the fastest 2200...

Sorry for the confusion.

oic... yah, lol. Sell whichever one you're not using.

Which p4 2.4?

a
b
c

northwood
prescott?

and the 2200 i thiought wast meant not as a direct vs intel speed, it was vs AMD old speed chips.....

 

[forrehmmnd]

dunno, but for a comparison(maybe) my old 2800 + beat the p4 3.0 ghz in another computer we have. (yes, same amount of ram etc.)

Really? My P4C 2.4Ghz outpeforms my AXP 2800+ in almost everything except a few games.

 

[forrehmmnd]

really?, got an average of 5-10 more fps on my system, same os, same ram, equivalent or worse video.

P4 2.4C also overclocks very well. Mine didn't, but still...

 

[MrGuvernment]

the northwoods were the best p4s, for overclocking and just clock for clock for the P4 line up, once you got over 3.2ghz the prescott's showed more efficiency, but also more heat

the AMD line was the king for gaming in that era more or less, but the P4 northy had it wins in other area's due to raw clock speed and higher FSB.
