Prescott LGA 775 v. Athlon 64

[Gość: bzykbzyk.]

Final Words

We have already shown how Intel's 925X and 915 platforms basically offer no
performance increase over current generation 875P/865 platforms. The lack of
performance improvement can essentially be attributed to the high latency of
current DDR2 memory, combined with the lack of bandwidth utilization of DDR2-
533.

These two problems can and will be addressed in the future by lower latency
DDR2 memory as well as Prescott's forthcoming 1066MHz FSB (which will be very
well matched to a DDR2-533 memory bus). Once again, unfortunately for Intel,
we are talking about present day performance and the situation isn't as
perfect as it would be had we been given both of those things.


As you saw in our June 21st Prescott article, the LGA775 platform offers no
performance increase over Intel's Socket 478 Pentium 4 platform or AMD's
Socket 754/939/940 AMD Athlon 64 platforms.

In fact, in the majority of today's popular programs, LGA775 Prescott
platforms generally perform slower than Athlon 64 platforms.

That's not to say that Prescott systems are slow; it just means that Athlon
64 systems are faster, and sometimes considerably faster than LGA775, while
sometimes being considerably cheaper too.

Therefore, the choice of CPU platform with this Hornet Pro system isn't ideal
in terms of pure performance, and depending on what your exact needs are,
that's either a minor detail or a huge negative.
