whice is better cpu to run
« on: November 01, 2009, 01:08:44 am »
I am using a P4 2.8. I just got my hands on a AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400 dual core 2.2 per core. Am I better off running the P4?

You're KIND of leaving the p4 open to guess here, because you're not really telling us much about the cpu.

Offhand (and following THIS chart, i'd say the x2 4400+ would be MUCH faster, but again, you're gonna have to specify just which p4 2.8ghz cpu you have...

But yeah, the x2's gonna be faster. If you decide not to use it, PM me and we'll arrange something else! :P

don't know much about the P4 I have. All I know is that its a single core 2.8. I was just wondering if a dual 2.2 amd would be faster at running my mame.

Alright. Well flat out, i can tell you that the amd x2 4400+ will be faster than any of the p4 2.8's.

It's all in the benchmarks posted up there ^^.
