madshrimps.be— First overclocking results with an Intel Duo Core T2600 clocked to 3.4Ghz runs faster than the current world record holder P4 670 at 7.2Ghz with less than halve the CPU cycles!

I personally have mainly one reason to use Intel over AMD: Adobe use Intel-specific code in their new applications, meaning they're much slower on AMD processors than on Intel ones. Premiere is already extremely sluggish, and Photoshop is turning towards it.
Perhaps super-pi is a single-threaded program and the CPU usage bar adds the usages of each together and divides by two?I don't and never have used a dual-core PC, so I'm not sure how that works out...-Perral1
makes me almost wish I got a dual core P4 when I had my pc built.. not that I'd ever notice the difference (much).I'm not surprised a native dual core would run better than an overclocked model, makes perfect sense.
eklitzke: That works for me too, nevertheless Adobe applications do run significantly faster on Intel processors. Which is the thing I really care about, not particularly whether it was intentional or not.
