Just because it can do REALLY REALLY fast FP math, doesn't mean that will translate to better performance for the apps that I run.

Running a P4 3.4 with 2 gig of ram.
"super_pi_mod.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close...."
Re-ran the program & came up with: 51.248s
I'll check my AMD machine tonight when I get home.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Faster than my P4 3.4 machine. Go figure...?

Equivalent to my Intel processor at work with 1/2 the ram & still 10 seconds faster than my P4 3.4 Ghz machine.
Frankly, I like both AMD & Intel chips. I'd have no reservations with Intel if they were more price competative. For now, the most computing power for my money is AMD based systems. That's all I run at home - because AMD based systems are far cheaper for comparable performance. Intel are the only systems that our IS department will run at work for compatability reasons, supposedly.

That program keeps crashing on this P4 2.8GHz w/ 512mb ram. The best I can do is a 16k every once in a while.

Sounds like maybe you've got bad RAMmies.

If it is a prescott P4, they run hot and even with a clock of 3.54Ghz, processors with sigificantly less power will out preform it. You can read about it on wiki.
