AMD overpowers INTEL PENT
An AMD chip will overpower any pentium that is "comparable." AMD are faster and more stable during multi-takings senarios.
I am sure there is a site out there that explains the lets say, AMD 2800 to a P4 2.8Ghz or whatever the AMD is closest to. I have wondered the comparison of AMD to P4's, I have never taken the time to look.
AMD is by far better, thats why they cost more*
