Mad Albert - Re: "if you agree with the quote that you have posted then Intel is toast. 1GHz Athlon without help of DDR beats 1.5GHz p-4 with all powerful intel-saving rambus Regards" Read the whole article. " Clint has also submitted some single-precision results using SSE and 3DNow!-optimized binaries. The test systems are the same, with the expected absence of the Itanium machine notwithstanding. While the Pentium 4 does support double-precision SSE2, in this case, we are looking strictly at SSE. Granted, 3DNow! is not IEEE compliant and not the best option for this kind of application, but it is an interesting comparison nevertheless. Suddenly, the Pentium 4's performance becomes very impressive, better than the Athlon on a clock-normalized basis, in fact. The Pentium 4 peaks at about 3700 MFLOPS, while the Athlon's peak is about 2300 MFLOPS." Let me repeat, Mad Albert - "Suddenly, the Pentium 4's performance becomes very impressive, better than the Athlon on a clock-normalized basis, in fact. The Pentium 4 peaks at about 3700 MFLOPS, while the Athlon's peak is about 2300 MFLOPS." regards -Dash pAUL
