Which will do best?

[KPJ]

Which of the following CPU's will do best in 3DMark01?

AMD Barton 2500+ @ 2500MHz
or
Intel Pentium 4 2,4C @ 3600MHz

The videocard will be a 9800 Pro on both.
RAM will be runned at 240MHz 2-2-2-5 (Intel) or 240MHz 2-2-2-11 (AMD).

Which will do best?

[Techmasta]

Top score for P4 at 3.6ghz and a 9800 pro is macci's 9800se, 23350.
Not sure what the top is for the barton because the orb reports some a64's in the same category as aXP's.

[Soulburner]

Intel.

[SPQQKY]

That can all depend on the motherboard as well, although I believe most boards that support a 2.4C will be better in the long run. Obviously, a Canterwood based board will be the best.

[Karnivore]

Even a springdale based P4C board will beat the best NF2 board under those conditions..

[benonmsn]

hard time getting a barton to 2.5ghz.

and the p4 will beat it

[S!1v3rB@cK_Dk]

But still, the barton setup is very good for the money

I'd go with the P4, AMD locking their Barton chips isn't too great. Maybe get a mobile barton but they don't clock as high right?

[Soulburner]

The Intel is about ~2k ahead in 3DMark01.

[luihed]

Prolly not anymore with the infinity getting such high fsb...... in any case, the p4 would win..... im guessing around 1000pts or so.....

higher mate :p:

looks like they do 2.6GHz on air without much persuasion at all. :eek:

[Soulburner]

Well the highest on the ORB are around 250fsb or more so the records around 24k are already at high FSB...

On average though there is about 1000-2000 marks between AXP and P4C.

Soulburner is pretty close on the numbers. When I say P4, its not just an opinion based on forum facts, I have NF2/Barton, and P4C Canterwood and Springdale here. And strictly answering the question of original poster, no debate exists.

If the question was "whats better", then maybe a debate, but it wasn't, and there isn't...

yep, def. P4 in this case

Top p4 23350 http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=7371805
My barton 21883 http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=7356716 core 510/378ish

And I know there are better benchers than me. So I would say less than 1000pts diff.

edit: and to answer the question still p4

edit: This is the top one that I can find under athlon 22181
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=7418222

but bartons show up under durons sometimes too

[Karnivore]

Question was Which will do better, not how close are they... Still P4....

[LilGator]

what about a mobile barton @ 2600MHz vs, a 2.4c @ 3.6GHz ?

P4 wins
