it depends what you want to use it for, personally, i would go with the Intel P4. I know that and AMD 2Ghz is faster then a P4 2Ghz, but the intel P4 3.2Ghz is faster than an AMD 2.2Ghz. I would go with the P4 since i prefer intel over amd and i find it more compoatible with more hardware and software than amd. Plus the intel that you showed us is much faster than the amd. Althought if your a hardcore gamer, i might consider an AMD (although i prefer P4 with HT).

Although there is like 1 or 2 games that use HT .....
 
If it was a athlon 64 3200+ I would of went with athlon but since it athlon xp 3200+ I would go with the pentium 4 3.2ghz. From all results I seen the 3.2Eghz p4 performs better then the athlon xp 3200+. Now It only a slight lead. You did not put prices down if you did and I found the athlon to be much cheaper then I would change my vote to the athlon.
