Another Question, 3200+ Amd Athlon XP 2.2 Ghz...

[Delirious]

I have that above...it says 3200+, but my processor is 2.2 Ghz...what's that suppose to mean? (the 3200+ that is)

 

[Jmac279]

It means it's about as fast as a 3.2 GHz Pentium processor ...

You can read the whole history of AMD's (and Intel's) PR rating system.

look at it as an equivalent to intels gigadealies. i have an amd 3k+ so it would stack up to an intel 3.0 ghz processor. the reason they put in that 3200+ is because they, intel and amd chips, are clocked differently. the 2.2ghz you are seeing for your processor is on intels system. if you were to clock the intel on amds system it would be about the same result.
