If you study the list carefully you will notice, that the per GHz performance of a P4 corresponds with 0.7 GHz of an Athlon (at least for chess). So a 3.2 GHz P4 (which is not in the list) should be as fast as an Athlon XP at 3.2X0.7 = 2.24 GHz. The per GHz performance of an Athlon 64 is even better than that of the Athlon XP, so an Athlon 64 3400+ which runs with 2.2 GHz is slightly faster than a Pentium 4 3.4 GHz (even in 32-Bit-Mode). Is there somethin unclear? regards Joachim
