Windsock,

Your forgot the part that one application runs 70% faster on a 1.5 Gig P4 than on a 1 GIG P3. That looks like a performance increase beyond the Mhz increase to me.

Of course the application uses the new technology introduced in the P4. And you and the 'Droids think that new technology introduced by Intel should never be considered in a performance evaluation.

Have you read Tom's discussion of this? The application was very memory bandwidth dependent, and the slight per clock performance increase in P4 was much less than should be expected.

The implication being that a T-Bird with DDR will blow away the P4 on Intel's pride and joy benchmark.
