Does anyone here have any comparitive performance information between using a an Intel P4 vs. the latest AMD Atholon (K7 I believe) in the context of video performance (i.e., motion, monitor, ffmpeg, mpeg2enc, etc.). I currently use a MSC P4 board with 256 MB DDR RAM with a 4-channel bt878 board and can process a full 120 fps @ 320x240, NTSC, q=9, at between 18% and 25% CPU utilization per channel.
It is hard to get an apples-to-apples via clockrate since AMD doesn't go as high as Intel. Also, is one better than the other for SMP? There is a great motherboard, the Tyan Thunder, that supports 2 K7's. I have not seen a SMP P4 board yet. My distribution is Debian 2.4-17. Anyone have any experiences with Debian on this board? Any recommendations or guidance? Thanks!
