i just noticed you listed it as the 3200 athlon.
this means its performance index would be closer to a 3.2 ghz intel.
however, i cannot absolutely tell you which is going to be best.
i can say this much, if you can wait to buy the 64 bit processor for a while, you will be very happy, as the prices drop fast when new things come out, and new things are on the horizon.
i myself, am an AMD advocate.
the makers of everquest seem to think that an intel processor is best, while many other game makers say that AMD is, or that they aren't comparable that way.
which ever it is, make sure it absolutely matches the board you are sticking it in, and then the rest shouldn't be a problem.
but, based on the athlon having the 3200 label, and the p4 having the 3.0 label, it tells me that the athlon would benchmark higher.
