AMD faster?

[sn3aky]

Just wondering... why do amd chips preform better than Intel (fps wise)?

 

[BobSnob]

Because they can.

AGodspeed, I've seen you post that a couple times. If you had to describe that smiley art in words, how would you?

Very informative question, lol! What do you mean fps wise? In games? Which games? What clock speeds are you comparing?

No Intel Pentium® 4 is faster!!!!!



























at MPEG4 compression

Now that is what I call ART! Well done!

I agree AGodspeed, why use words when you can use smilies?

umm why did I read this post?

cause amd's daddy can beat up intel's daddy any day, that's why.....

dew.

Because AMD's FPU kicks arse.


Very nice art AGodspeed. That's the best I've seen in a long time

AMD!!

Very technical responses so far, all I know is it has to do with the architechture of the AXP's which although they are not MHz wise as fast, they can get more data processed in one clock cycle. That is basically the limit to my real technical knowledge, maybe try the Highly Technical Forum, there are probably people there that can answer this better.

 

[Egrimm]

Okay, okay, I'll give a little better description, keep in mind that I'm not an expert, like mrman3k said ask in Highly Technical for highly technical answers.

This is very simple, I cannot give a much more detailed description as this is pretty much all I know:
Each commend has to get through several stages to get executed, the Athlon (and all other x86 cpu's except the p4) has 15 stages whereas the p4 has 20. Thus it takes longer time for the p4 to execute each command but the more stages allow it to reach higher clock speeds. Look at some of the articles written about the p4 when it came out, it was discussed much at that time.
