wanna_bmw - maybe Jim is saying that the only performance sensitive things that he runs are Pi calculations

AMD investors are eating a lot of Humble Pi these days.

RE:"maybe Jim is saying that the only performance sensitive things that he runs are Pi calculations and Science Marks, in which case, the Athlon is the obvious winner."

Funny thing is that the benchmarks started to change about the time the P4 came out. Then again, AMD didn't do jack about it. So AMD is getting what they deserve. Still, the benchmark that really matters is MHz (or modelhertz (but I'll take Mhz)), especially to the less technical minded (tm Tench).
