An XP1800 can't come close to the 2.4c 800 FSB ,especially with either using a
dual DDR motherboard. It would require more like an XP 2800 or better if
you compare them non overclocked, but if you overclock both of them the 2.4c
will wins hands down. The 2.4 will overclock in the 3.1 to 3.3 range with the
FSB up around 1000 to 1100 range. DOUG

Sandra applies a PR (Performance Rating) value to all processors, its in the
"System Summary" section.

I have been making mental notes on all my CPU's as to their ratings. My
current system is a P4c on an Intel i875 chipset board (Abit IC7)
overclocked to 3.26Ghz (250MHz FSB, 1020Mhz effective). It
s PR=4330

My last system at 2400Mhz (AthlonXP/NF2) had a PR of about 3400 and my kids
XP/NF2 system at 2200Mhz has a PR rating of 3180.

Its impossible to compare these system to each other. A standardized
Performance Rating is going to be necessary. Sandra doesn't provide any
details about how they obtain it but it seems fairly accurate.

My newest Intel box is definitely allot faster then my last Athlon at
2400Mhz. Its PR is about 30% higher and I would say that is a fair
assessment of its performance increase. Game performance is a cool 15%
higher across the board and other more ordinary tasks feel a quite bit
faster.
