I was just wondering how an intel P4 with a cedar mill core, highly overclocked like the guys on xtremesystems got them up to 6ghz, would stand up to and AMD 3700+.
ok well i dont think an AMD can go to 6GHZ, but performance wise i think the FXs should be able to match or beat it. and i think the 4800 ( not on ur list ) can come close to matching it no?
You'd need a CPU which gets over 6000+ P-Rating in Centrail Brain Identifier before you can consider it close. You can't simply speculate.
A 4800+ would only be at.....you guessed it, 4800........you'd still have to overclock that a bit to get it up there, so probably somewhere in the low 3GHz range a good AMD could beat it / match it
