Re: [Fractint] AMD Athlon XP vs Intel Pentium 4

Check Tom's Hardware Guide, and Anandtech.com.

From what I see on both, Athlon XP keeps up with the Pentium 4, despite its slower clock speed (compared to the newest P4s), and beats them in most throughput tests.

Of course, don't believe any of those sites test using Fractint or any other 16-bit app. ;-) David gnome@hawaii.rr.com On 17 Feb 02, at 19:05, Lee Skinner wrote:

Does anyone know if the newest AMD Athlon XP is better (speedwise) at running a 16-bit application (Fractint, of course) than the newest Pentium 4's?

(Gathering upgrade information)

Thanks,
