Petz,

Good analysis. I think the one weakness may be your statement that: "A 2 GHz Athlon would already have performance equivalent to the 2.4 GHz, 533 FSB, 1066 RDRAM Northwood."

Let me go through the results with a rough guess which processor would win:


Quake III Arena NW
Quake III Arena1024 NW
Quake III ArenaNV15 NW
3DMark2000 Pro TB
3DMark2001 Pro NW
Newtek Lightwave NW
XMPeg4.5 TB
Sysmark 2002 NW
Sysmark 2002 Office NW (close)
Sysmark 2002InterCC NW
LameMP3 TB
MP3 Maker NW
WinACE NW
Cinema 4D XL R7 TB
3D Studio Max TB
SPEC Viewperf DRV08 NW
SPEC Viewperf DX07 TB
SPECViewperfLIGHT05 TB (close)
SPECViewperfPROE01 NW (close)
SPECViewperfUGS01 TB
Comanche 4 NW
Pinnacle Studio 7 NW
Sandra CPU TB
Sandra Multimedia TB
Sandra Memory NW
PC Mark 2002 NW (close)
PC Mark Memory NW


10 out of 27, which is close but still not there. I don;t know if SSE and slightly faster memory modules are already counted in the xpected 20% or 25% improvement, but they would turn a the close results around so would nForce2.
