Dan, Re: "Palominos have been overclocked to 2GHZ, so it would take a P4 running at 4/3 * 3 or 4GHZ to equal the performance of the current Athlon Palomino overclock champ."

Oh, you don't say. I'm sure the Intel thread will be crushed to hear this. Of course, you are also assuming that Athlon will scale as well as the Pentium 4 at higher frequencies, that Northwood will have no performance enhancements relative to the current Pentium 4, and that SuperPI will remain the overclocker's choice benchmark without any Pentium 4 optimizations. But who am I to argue sense against the superiority of Dan3 logic!?! <g>

Dan, <A P4 at 2GHZ runs SuperPi at the same speed as a tbird at 1.2GHZ>

I think more people use their computers to play Quake III than calculate Pi. Don't you? ;-)
