where as a pentium4 will kick nearly any cpu's arse at video encoding, due to long pipelines and no need for prediciton

An AMD 64 whoops its arse on games.

depending on the speeds,a pentium 4 will probably eb quicker than your athlon 2400+


My Athlon64 @2.0Ghz is faster at everything than my Pentium4 @3.06Ghz... Though I suspect the Athlon64's integrated dual channel memory controler to be the major force at play here.

@ all

Ok, set Cas to 2.0 not that i expected any real differences.

Re ran AIBB benchmark
EmuTest
Slower result than a 040 CPU. NASTY

This is on my Athlon 2400

The XP celeron benchmark pulls the 040 off the screen. There's something really wrong here.

As for Celeron CPU being differnt, yes, just as the Athlon is different to the Intel. i used p4 as the spec as it's the arcitecture of the latest celerons with some serious limitations like the hyperthreading gone and less cache.
Still, the Athlon should be able to beat the pants off the celeron with out a doubt.

Benchmarks on XP celeron box tomorrow.




Then it has to be your WinUAE settings, as my old Athlon 600Mhz was flooring any real Amiga in all tests using AIBB!

Yeah possibly...

i would also suspect the chipset performance.

Check out my farcical attempt   at building a computer...



I'm a Gigabyte convert, now! The nForce4 chipset rocks.

I notice on your website none of your machines have pannels on the cases... I dread to think of the EM eminating from your room!! :-o Your house probably shows up on satelite images... or maybe that's your plan :lol:
