It should run quite a bit faster. It doesn't matter how fast your CPU is if it only does so much per each one of those cycles.
My Athlon XP (much less powerful than the Athlon64) runs at 2Ghz, but I can guarantee you that it will outperform your Pentium 4 2Ghz in EVERY test you put it in. Think outside the box. The A64 will be the best buy. As pointed out, the builtin memory controller helps a LOT.
