Well the experience of a desktop or an application depends on more than
just the processor. Nearly every part of a computer does its part. And
then you have the software, what software you use, how it is build, what
reqirements this software has on other software and hardware and so on.
Does it uses the FPU or is it heavy on the ALU. How much IO is used and
how much can the system provide.
But if you believe the average hardwaremagazine, intel is a step ahead
right now.
