Which CPU is really better and why? (confused about clock speeds...)

Under ideal circumstances "some" Intel models might have beat an AMD model depending on which models you are comparing. A P3 or P4 to a K5? or Duron maybe?

K6-2+/K6-III+ vs. Pentium II/III

Duron/Sempron vs. Celeron

Athlon/Athlon XP vs. Pentium 4

Athlon X2 vs. Core duo

Show me any Intel that out performed a AMD mached Mhz to Mhz up to the Core 2 Duo

Uh, no.

Not in the same categorie, Even at that you really think a Pentium M 2 Ghz would out do a Athlon 64 3200+, I dont really think so!

There not in the same catagory, seeing as the Pentium M is a mobile processor.

But a Pentium M 2Ghz would outperform an A64 2Ghz by a longshot. The Pentium M is very similar to the Core architecture.

Don't compare Duron to Celeron. You will lose there unfortunately. But compare the old Slot 1 T-Bird that OCed like crazy and you will have something there to rave about.

Intel didn't!

Actually no, it would definately not be by a long shot. In fact they compared them in this article and the amd athlon 64 with the closest freq. possible beat the pentium m. The pentium m is from the p4 era to so its not really similiar to the core architecture.

The pentium M, core duo, and core 2 duo are all derivatives of the P6 architecture (pentium III), so the architecture is very similar. C2D has some netburst elements in it though.

No the core 2 chip is based on a completely new architecture, the core architecture. The core chips were the last ones based on the netburst architecture.

The Core Duo is a different Socket type cpu(478) from the Core 2 Duo(775) as well. The one thing that seems to lack on all but one Intel Core or Core 2 model is hyperthreading. Yet AMD sees that on most of theirs. The only Intel model found so far can be seen at http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819116248
