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?

Single-channel versus Dual-channel...

The Numbers:

...there it is with 8 FSB. CPU Z says that's 200.5 versus 208.8, which results in 2406 versus 2401. The 200 dual-channel is just edging by the 208 single-channel scores in everything but the 3DMarks, so this is basically tie-ballgame. I'll just go ahead and say dual-channel is worth 9 FSB.

Good fun. Let's move on to Intel, where there's a lot more shakin' and bakin' going on...
