Dual core shoot-out: Intel versus AMD
Talkback This would make it possible for a user of a CPU not included in the benchmark, to compare the performance in some (inaccurate) way. Building a large project with a commonly available compiler would be most interesting, as it would enable many...

AMD on the attack in processor performance row
News Benchmarks create statistics that are supposed to make it easier to compare one processor's performance against another. The move steps up AMD's efforts to ensure that its processors compare favourably with Intel's in the public eye, but some...

Benchmark wars
News To see how difficult it is to compare database performance, just look at the TPC publication on a variety of TPC-C benchmarks for various hardware and database platforms. So how do we compare database speed?

Intel gives up the gigahertz
News The system is designed to help consumers compare chips on a "good," "better" and "best" basis, the source said. But Intel intends the ratings to be used only to compare chips within a line, but not to compare different families of processors...

Sun plans eight-way Opteron servers this year
News While Sun is happy to compare Opteron and SPARC against Intel processors, said Timbers, the company does not do enough to compare them against each other. Lack of comparison could be because SPARC doesn't compare very well to Opteron," ventured...

Intel shrinks Pentium 4 Northwood
News However, Intel argues that the model numbers are designed to make Athlon XP appear to compare more favourably to Pentium 4 processors. Industry analysts widely regard it as impossible to compare different processor platforms, except by running...

AMD and Intel war over benchmarks
News The Intel benchmarks compare a Pentium 4 "Northwood" core with Rambus memory, for example, while the AMD core uses DDR (double data rate) DRAM, which does not allow the same bandwidth for memory-intensive applications such as video rendering, but...

700MHz Shoot-Out, Intel comes out on top (Part 1)
News We had the opportunity to extensively test a 733MHz Coppermine CPU and compare it with a 700MHz Athlon system. Note that PC800 doesn't necessarily mean the RAM is eight times faster, you can't directly compare the clock rates of direct RDRAM with...
