Athlon XP 2100+: AMD Turns Up The Heat

3D-Rendering: Newtek Lightwave 7b

The Lightwave benchmark clearly brought the enhancements of the Pentium 4 processors to light - the Athlon XP 2100+ placed in the center of the pack. All Pentium 4 CPUs at an FSB clock speed of 133 MHz and 533 MHz Rambus memory that are not yet available on the market were marked with a blue-and-black bar and are there only for reference purposes.

The Cinema benchmark tells a completely different story - The AMD Athlon XP 2100+ placed first among the currently available CPUs. It even surpassed the performance of the Pentium 4/2400, not yet available on the market, that we ran with 533 MHz Rambus. Note that the Pentium 4/2400 will not be on the market with 133 MHz. All Pentium 4 CPUs with an FSB clock speed of 133 MHz and 533 MHz Rambus memory that are not yet available on the market were marked with a blue-and-black bar and are there only for reference purposes.
