925X vs. 875: General Performance & Encoding
Comparing a fast current 875 system with a 3.2 Northwood to a comparable 925X with a 3.2 Prescott, Winstones, PCMark 2004, and Media Encoding all show only about a 1% performance advantage to the 925X with all the new technology.

Well this has just confirmed my plan for an athlon 64 next - I can't see any reason to be looking towards intel, either now or in the near future (next 6 months).WileCoyote - Saturday, June 19, 2004 - link

Actually now that I think of Intel might be correct. The chipset may be up to 15% faster, its just that Prescott is up to 15% slower.wicktron - Saturday, June 19, 2004 - link
