Scumbria, <Nonsense. 2GHz is 33% faster than 1.5GHz. The same frequency margin P4 has had over Athlon all along.>

Back when 1.5 GHz P4 was introduced, Athlon was at 1.2 GHz, and Intel had an advantage of only 25%. Then AMD closed the gap to 13% until Intel widened it again to 28%.

It's been a long time since Intel last led AMD in clock speeds by 33%. Elmer is right, this does represent a widening of the clock speed lead.

(How that translates into actual benchmark numbers is another story, unfortunately.)
