  An AMD processor may execute a command with
less clock cycles than an Intel processor.
e.g.
It could get more work done with equal clock cycles.
It could get as much work done with less clock cycles.
It could get more work done with less clock speed.

<2>
  Why not let someone else prove it and then you can
simply accept their education, skill, and knowledge.

There is more to measuring CPU than clock cycle speed.
How fast does it r/w memory and devices...internal
and external cache, bus speed, ...?
