That's a hard to answer question, especially since you have to define what you mean by "work". The chips that do the most work per clock cycle aren't necessarily the best either, the trick is to strike a balance between clockspeed and Instruction Per Clock. The P4 actually had a great balance going for it during the Northwood days, but since 90nm has stunted clock scaling, the less-work-per-clock Athlon 64 has overtaken the P4 in performance.

Anything worth the cost of a missile, which can be located on the battlefield, will be shot at with missiles. If the US military is involved, then things, which are not worth the cost if a missile will also be shot at with missiles. -Sea Skimmer

Now if only someone would also overclock a GPU to 166%

I wonder how much the internal resistance went down when the cooper was cooled down to that temperature?
Devolution is quite as natural as evolution, and may be just as pleasing, or even a good deal more pleasing, to God. If the average man is made in God's image, then a man such as Beethoven or Aristotle is plainly superior to God, and so God may be jealous of him, and eager to see his superiority perish with his bodily frame.
