On the other hand, we should also point out the advantages of the Pentium 4 EE. Even though it cannot keep pace with the measured memory performance of the FX, there are many applications that benefit from a large cache, the high clock rate, and, especially, from Hyper Threading: 3D Studio Max, Cinema 4D, Cool Edit Pro, XMPEG with DivX, MainConcept MPEG Encoder, TMPGEnc, SYSmark 2004 and Microsoft's Movie Maker.
The bottom line? We need to delay the final verdict as to which of the processor strategies is better in the long term. We just can't determine a clear-cut winner at this point. At increasing clock rates, both processors offer additional potential.
