Office Applications

When we work in Microsoft Office, the processor performance doesn’t affect that much the overall system performance.

However web-pages rendering in one of the most popular browsers – Mozilla (its engine is used in even more widely spread FireFox) – is performed much faster on Athlon 64 processors than on the competing CPUs from Intel.

However, if there is any other resource-hungry process running in the background while you are browsing the web-sites, Pentium 4 solution turns out more efficient due to Hyper-Threading technology support.

As we see, the performance of one more widespread Nero application intended for CD and DVD disks burning is also hardly dependent on the CPU speed.
