AMD's Athlon 64 Has Arrived: the Athlon 64 FX and Athlon 64 (and Intel's P4 Extreme)

MPEG-Encoding: Pinnacle Studio 8.8

MPEG-2 encoding is easy with Pinnacle Studio 8.8: the Athlon 64 FX-51 performs roughly the same as the Intel P4 3.2. Due to its slower clock speed of 2000 MHz, the little Athlon 64 3200+ crumbles next to the FX-51.
