Hi boys.
I severely need some information.
Let me brief you:
I've got a 1.7 o.c. to 1.9, but last night i build up an AMD Athlon 1800+ for a friend, i put it throught typical tests and programs.
I just got petrified when i found AMD terribly faster than mine!
By now I'm so disspirited in my overclocking and even my cpu.
Then i planed to purchase a faster P4, so i found that the 2.4 would be the best choice for me.(regarding the prices)
But i'm not so sure whether it will satisfy me or not?
One of my typical benchmarks is a simpe one:
just run the windows 98/XP calculator and calculate this :
20000!
estimate how much time it takes until the answer appears on the screen,estimation can be carried out by simple a wrist watch.
My result is 9.1 seconds for 1.7 GHZ when not overclocked .
The fatest P4 cpu i could run the test on was a typical 2.0 GHZ and the result was 7.5 seconds,for AMD 1.8+ the result was 5 seconds!(all tests Under win 98)
unfortunately i could'nt find any faster P4 cpu to run the test.If you got a faster one ,please send me your result and also your O/s type. It will take only bit of your time to do it.
Please do note if your cpu is overclocked or not.(if not ,would be standard and better)
Thanks in advance.
