Ponti no the answer is simple. Every P4 Ghz (Northwood or Prescott makes no difference) performs as fast as 0.7 GHz of an Athlon XP for chess and probably as fast as 0.6 GHz of an Athlon 64 (but there are not enough numbers yet to be sure). So do the math yourself, which P4 is equal in chess performance to an Athlon XP or Athlon 64. HT adds only little performance for chess engines.
