3.2 GHz Athlon Power

Great article here:

Dual Boards From ASUS and MSI

Quote:
In principle, two processors are better than one. This fact is in line with the approach we've often taken: that you can never have too much performance. Even an Athlon XP 2000+, which is already quite powerful, quickly reaches its limit when dealing with certain applications. This is confirmed by the shop-talk among hardware fans, who like to have their films converted to DVDs in a matter of minutes. In other words, we need more computing power!

Intel P4 Xeon vs Athlon MP. Although it's a bit old, but I guess it's still a good read. Trying to locate a newer article on this..
