AthlonXP running at 2.003 according to diagnostics.  AMDs' cpus cores oft time run faster then what is advertised.
AthlonXP1600 runs 1.51GHz advertised 1.43Ghz
AthlonXP2400 advertised 1.93Ghz but runs 2.003Ghz


Are you sure your bus-speed is 133MHz ?
Some Mobo-manufacturers have been using slightly faster bus-speeds so their products were getting better performance in tests.

Here's how you can check what type of AMD XP you are using:

Not much room?  How about 8GHz.  Is that enough for you?

Oh.. and I do believe you'll see new releases from Intel long before you'll see the clawhammer... or at least see it on the market.

My only complaint about Intel is their deception of the General public on speed. But I can't really blame them, this is a business they run.:D
Deception on speed?  I find that an incredibly ironic statement coming from an AMD supporter.

Ah.. minis... excellent post.  I didn't undestand a word of it.

Nearest I can tell it translates to:

I have as much of a grasp of cpus as I do of the English language.
So far, in this thread, I have responded to "you are so deceived" and "Intel is lying about CPU speed".

When AMD had a 1 GHz PC, speed mattered.  When Intel blew by them in the speed departement, performance mattered.  One thing is for sure, one of the two companies has stayed consistant... the other has flip-flopped.

As far as the $$$ goes... each company sets their own prices.  Though... AMD isn't making less proffit because of what they sell their processors for... they are making less proffit because of how much it costs to make them.
