PR Rating has been discussed many many times and everyone would agree that AMD is being conservative on it's side. But how about Mobile version it's processor. I think AMD is just mis-using this PR rating for Mobile. Here's the rating for newley released mobile processors...
Athlon 4 1600+ = 1400Mhz
Athlon 4 1500+ = 1300Mhz
Athlon 4 1.2Ghz = 1200 Mhz
Ratings for Desktop Processors
XP 2100+ = 1733 Mhz
XP 2000+ = 1667 Mhz
XP 1900+ = 1600 Mhz
XP 1800+ = 1533 Mhz
XP 1700+ = 1467 Mhz
XP 1600+ = 1400 Mhz
XP 1500+ = 1333 Mhz
All of these processors are based on Palomino core. Also the mobile processors have 200Mhz FSB instead of Desktop's 266Mhz. So you should also agree that Preformance will be different between Mobile and Desktop with the same Mhz processor. So my question is how come PR 1500+ on desktop is 1.333Ghz and it's 1.3Ghz for Mobile. And the difference between 100Mhz on Mobile equal to 100PR. But on desktop it's only 66.67 Mhz equal 100PR. Is AMD mis-using this PR rating for mobile processors??????
