ArsTechnica Compares the P4 and G4e: Part II

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the start-your-head-spinning dept.

Deffexor writes "It looks like Hannibal of ArsTechnica fame has put Part 2 of his original comparison article between Intel's P4 and the Apple/Motorola G4e. In a nutshell, this second article covers the execution core, the AltiVec unit and SSE2, as well as a myriad of other interesting factoids. An interesting read, if not a little technically intense for those of us with less than a CE/EE degree. Have at it boys!"

    Big article, only had time to glance over it (and I'm not technically qualified to understand it in its full detailed glory), but as far I can see, the dude isn't picking sides. Wich is a rare treat.

    Although he does confirm Steve Job's words of wisdom: Mhz aren't everything :)

    (I, on the other hand, am picking sides)
