AMD Athlon XP 3200

"The AMD Athlon XP 3200 type Barton is a Socket A Processor operating at 2200Mhz, has a Front Side Bus speed of 200Mhz and 512K L2 Cache. The AMD Athlon XP 3200 supports MMX+, 3DNow+ and SSE."

"It was an interesting result with all of the processors showing what great performance Athlon XP and Sempron can offer. However there can be only one winner and the Athlon XP 3200 with it's big speed advantage was 16% faster overall than the Athlon XP 2500 and 30% faster than the Sempron 2200. If you remember at the start of this review we wanted to see atleast a 14% speed advantage over the Athlon XP 2500 and 34% over the Sempron 2200. The Athlon XP 3200 is over 14% faster than the Athlon XP 2500 overall but the Athlon XP 3200 was NOT over 34% faster than the Sempron 2200 overall which was a big surprise. The final conclusion is that with the Athlon XP 3200 you will need a much faster video card than the one we used to really show it's power."
