The idea is to look for yourself before starting the 60000th thread on the same subject.
None of the threads you listed answer his question. Sure, they're AMD vs Intel, but they don't answer why a 1.6 GHz Athlon XP is as good as a 2 GHz Pentium 4! I just did a search and came up with quite a threads about AMD vs Intel. None of them were helpful. That's why I'm not bothered by these threads...most of them aren't useful. A Google search will return a crock of shit as well...Internet fanboys don't care about numbers, they care about their l337 Athlon XP that was $70 versus a $200 Pentium 4. The Internet has spawned a new breed of media bias.

If you truly want the whole story, go to www.tomshardware.com and read every article since Athlon XP's were debuted. If ya want the story in a nutshell, see my above paragraph.
