    Athlon XP 1800+177170174
    Intel P4 2.0GHz 215163186
    Intel P4 1.8GHz198154175
    AMD Athlon 1.4GHz155156155

    Now there's a patch that will up the score of the Athlon XP 1800+ in Windows XP; and this patch's performance improvement will be reflected in the scores you get once Microsoft updates their Media Encoder. But in an effort to keep as much as possible similar between setups, these scores are without that patch.

    Intel P4 2.0GHz 5884
    Intel P4 1.8GHz5745
    AMD Athlon 1.4GHz5159

    While these 3DMark2001 scores show a marked improvement over the 1.4GHz Athlon's score, it still leaves the Athlon XP 1800+ trailing behind both the 1.8GHz and 2.0GHz P4's.

    Athlon 1.4GHz188.6180.3

    As has become the norm, the Intel processors continue to dominate the Quake3 benchmark, but the Athlon XP 1800+ does show a marked improvement over the 1.4GHz Athlon.
