AMD ghz vs. Intel ghz

[Nitestick]

i would like to add that the amd fsb runs at full duplex while the intel fsb runs at half duplex. also each time intel has to compute 2 threads it has to load them into memory through the northbridge with their half duplex fsb

could you clarify this because i don't quite understand it :amazed:

right my 2800 is the same as a Intel 2.8ghz

Since your's is a sempron it's only comparable to a celeron

the p-rating for Sempron's in my experience is a little ambiguous. in raw calculation ability and basically more scientific sort of tasks the sempron performs more like a celeron. when it comes to multimedia and gaming thought the sempron excels and would more closely match a P4 at the clock speed corresponding to its p-rating than a celeron
