CPUs are varying all da time, u can't just look at mhz quoted...
I think Intel had the best processor with the P4 2Ghz, but AMD has stolen top spot again.

IMHO the best cpu is Amd k7, because i can rip cds faster than a pentium 4

if you really want to know the best CPU on the market imo at the moment, it is G4 PowerPC for mac. it's absolutely brilliant. the architecture, speed, reliability, and technical specs make it faster and less worked than a pentium4 or a k7. i could go into more details if you want. but all i have to say for now is an 867 mhz G4 chip paired up with a 1.8 p4 chip with the same amt of RAM and everything, won against the 1.8 p4 chip. there's a lotta reasons why that the avg consumer might not know, and probably won't know.

indeed, the p4 is an extremely lame chip. but when you gets results of an 83% faster benchmark on a dual 800 mhz chip (which is still less than 1.8) of the mhz amt. it's rather impressive.
but intel is attempting to correct their mistake with their new chip called the itanium. and so far, it's looking to be quite sleek. still won't be as fast as the G4 chip from what i'm seeing, but it'll run 100% faster than their p4 chip. no exaggeration there by the way. because it has half the pipelines of their p4 predeccessor. anyway, enough rambling. hehe.
amd's still good, but there are a lot of better chips out there. like p4's itanium that's coming out soon and the sparc chip mentioned above. which are both better than any of amd's chips out there and to come really.

i'm gonna have to go with anything AMD!!!!!!! go ahead and buy AMD stock, it will rise in value, their P/E ratio is VERY LOW currently....

*please note that i am not responsible to you for any downturn in AMD's stock if their stock value falls below for what You bought it at*

A dual set of Intel Xeon 2.0 Ghz would put any1 at lite speed I think.

The Dual set is really impressive.......but people have gone too far in this thread. WE're talkin abt home PC's here.
PIII is still my favourite but AMD is not far behind.

I am as nomadic as the others wandering from warehouse to warehouse to have my soul awakened. The music thunders through my flesh, the notes swim within my veins. DJs spin their scriptures with eloquence, zest and assurance. The bass rattles my lungs and beats in unison with my heart. If I close my eyes I can watch my flesh melt away and my soul rise between the spaces of sound.
