WBMW, <They conveniently ignore the multitudes of other benchmarks that confirm which areas the Pentium 4 can outperform the Athlon.> It's all an Intel-backed conspiracy. It's obvious that the conspiracy reaches far beyond what anyone could ever imagine. The truth is out there ... Tenchusatsu

"it's pretty obvious that he would have to be rather selective about it." You should not be talking about selectivity. My selection is simple - Intel harbored BAPCO 2000, and BAPCO 2001. Why I need anything else? They apparently worked hard, established patterns of PC use, and arrived to a benchmark with a broad spectrum of sub-loads (Photoshop filters in particular). Then AMD just enabled the OS to recognize their SSE instructions, and your beloved Pentium-4 faded away. What do you do? You select. As AMD has shown, you selected mostly those loads that benefit Pentium-4, and run them repeatedly, to make the time up. Good, natural selection I would say, Intel-style. Did the PC usage pattern change so drastically over the last year? Apparently only in Intel's mind. You should not be talking about selectivity. - Ali
