Re: But the fact that intel was very competitive on super pi and other athlon favorable benchmarks(doesn't AMD win by a much larger margin in my sql under a 32 bit OS) indicates that 64 bit performance is just fine.

There is one person who frequents this board (and I'll keep his identity private to satisfy the TOS) who used to argue that the only reliable CPU benchmark was the calculation of Pi, since it wouldn't make use of a processor's cache or memory subsystems. Needless to say, the silence is now deafening.
