Business Winstone 2002

Notes
The Athlon’s execution pipeline is much shorter than that of the Pentium 4. As a result, business-related applications are generally faster on the K7 architecture, which doesn’t suffer as often from branch mis-predictions. It doesn’t look like the chip gains much from the move to a 400MHz bus, but overclocking certainly gives it a boost, as does the extra 256KB of L2 cache that accompanies the ‘Barton’ core.
