According to Tom's Hardware, the 3.4E is SUCH a disappointment in games.

Im no fan of any AMD/Intel camp, but the P4E isnt that bad. Tom forgets that this cpu, like most P4C's, work better at high clockspeeds.

Technically speaking, the P4E could have been a failiure with such a huge x86 pipeline. Not too sure what Intel did, it cant be just branch predictor improvements + 1mbyte of cache that causes such improvements, but its highly impressive...
 
Wow the P4's are really fast in encoding! (I thought it was small, but its from 30 secs to a whole minute and a half!😀)
 
No matter how the benchmarks are skewed the A64 will beat the P4EE in gaming and is also much cheaper! P4EE isn't horrible but for the price, I think Intel could've given gamers a lot more to look forward to.

They are talking about the Prescott, which is the P4E, not the P4C-EE (that just stands for Extreme Edition, it seems).
