AMD Athlon VS Pentium III -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

January 31, 2000, 13:02	AMD Athlon VS Pentium III	#1
sencal@hotmail.com Guest Posts: n/a	I am going to buy a computer but not sure which one to buy. Some are telling AMD Athlon is much better and faster for Computing and Graphics intensive work compared to Pentium III chips. Again some people are telling me that AMD chips are not not suitable for JRE for windows as well as other Java applications because of Stability problems and PIII chips are better for these type of applications (more stable). People who have used either can send me their viewpoints about the above mentioned chips. I am planning to buy either a PIII 550e machine or AMD Athlon 600 machine with about 256 MB Ram, based on what you guys tell me. Also please let me know whether windows 98 or Windows NT is a better platform for CFD applications. Thanks a lot. Sencal
