[quote="Terminator-1000":b0e67]Hey Bane what u saying is correct. AMD uses a different method of rating there CPU's. I believe the way the rate them is how they are compared to an Intel processor.

For example a XP2700+ is in fact 2.16GHz i believe, but its "rated" at 2700 because its just as quick as a P4 2700GHz processor. (2.8Ghz to be exact since there is no 2.7GHz P4). So they kinda use this so u know how quick it is compared to an Intel chip.
So in reality your 1800 AMD is equivalent to a Intel 1.8Ghz chip, got it?[/quote:b0e67]

Ok. So it runs at 1.53Ghz, but performs the same number of operations as a P 1.8Ghz. Got it. Thanks guys. I may have been wrong about the 1.15Ghz, it was recalled from memory tarnished by Superbowl Sunday...
