P4 2.4B-2.4C with 865PE-875P vs AXP 2500+ with nForce2

CPU by Zroc @ 2003-05-12

With the newly released Springdale (865PE) and Canterwood (875P) motherboards and 800FSB P4?s, intel has taken a huge leap in both stock speed and overclockability. Will this crush the competition - the very affordable nForce2 + Barton combo - or are PAT, Hyperthreading, integrated S-ATA, and Gigabit lan just buzz words?

Hyperthreading or not...

Hyperthreading, as cool as it is, has been known to hinder benchmarks a tad. I left it off in all these tests as well, because I wanted to compare the 2.4's directly (i.e. the 533 doesn't have it).

The Numbers:
Madshrimps (c)

The Graphs:

What I DID find cool here is, the 'HT hit' was practically zero on the 875P board...nice! Maybe a little PAT side-benefit here? Whatever it is...coolness.

Ok, let's bring on the finals...
