Image Editing

The performance of our testing participants in ACDSee, which consists of simple packet functions for image editing and in fully-fledged Adobe Photoshop is about the same. Athlon 64 processor family seems to be a little bit better suited for image processing, than the solutions from Intel.

At the same time we have to state that Pentium 4 6XX CPUs outperform their predecessors from the Pentium 4 5XX family by just a few tenths of a percent. In other words, the increase of the L2 cache memory in Prescott 2M CPUs is hardly noticeable in graphics editing apps.
