Computer Question

[Dangerous55]

Well, I got my new computer today and I have a question about the processor. I don't know too much but here goes...

It is a AMD 3200 I know, and when I go to Properties under My Computer it says AMD 3200. But under that it says 2.2 GHZ......is that normal?


I am on my old computer now and it says:

AMD 2000+
1.66 GHZ

Why is the GHZ under?

The AMD 3200 and 2000 don't refer to the ghz, but the processor model.

So...that is normal then?

[digigram]

2.2ghz is the normal xp3200 speed.

believe they thought that the model names (xp 1600-3200) are equivilent to intel's actual clock speed..

so Xp3200 is equivilent to pentium 3.2ghz or some BS.

but.. benchmarks generally show they are equal.
