Well, there's no doubt that Intel chips have higher clock speed 
ratings.

But that doesn't necessarily translate into actual performance 
improvements in applications. It all depends on where the performance 
bottleneck is and whether or not the CPU's optimizations help 
whatever that problem happens to be.

On the PC side, there really hasn't been any remarkable difference in 
any of the 1GHz+ CPUs from an end user point of view, except, 
perhaps, in the most computationally intense tasks.
