The Final Battle: P4/2400 vs. Athlon XP 2100+ (2400+)
MPEG-2 Video Encoding: Pinnacle Studio 7
The Pentium 4/2400 is somewhat faster than its AMD rivals at creating an MPEG-2 video with Pinnacle Studio 7. The slowest candidate is once again the AMD Athlon 850, which we've included in this comparison. The performance of the AMD Athlon XP 2100+, however, is quite impressive: in combination with DDR333 (CL 2.0) and the KT333 chipset, it is able to keep apace with its Intel rivals, which are clocked to much higher speeds. All chips that are not yet available on the market are marked with grey bars.
