my test was to compile mplayer for i686 vs K7, and i686 won slightly, the only decent explanation being that the kernel was compiled i686.
i was playing a very high resolution movie where the audio and video would go out of sync because the cpu i had at the time wasn't powerful enough to render it realtime. the audio was a few seconds less out of sync with i686.

Thanks!!!
