Is there any web site that compares processors speed?
e.g. is there any difference between Intel XScale PXA270 (416mhZ) and Samsung S3C2442 (400MHz)?

I was wondering if there is any comparison table or a website that compares the performance of these CPUs, which I think are the most commonly used in pdas nowadays.
1. 32bit Intel XScale PXA270 at 520MHz (eg. XDA Flame)
2. 32bit Qualcomm MSM7200 at 400MHz (eg. Touch II)
3. 32bit Samsung SC32442 at 400MHz (eg. HTC Trinity 100)

There aren't many comparisons and the existing ones, including user reports, are pretty unreliable. For example, several users state the Qualcomm-based Kaiser is slow; other users state it's fast etc.
I'm curious -- can someone who understands the technology of cpu design tell me what the real differences are between the x7510 Intel cpu and the Qualcomm cpu in the current HTC releases? Is there any significant performance difference? And how does the x7510 SDRAM compare to the Touch series DDR SDRAM memory?
Thanks!
the intel xscale beats the qualcomm anytime in my experience.
don't know about the RAM.

2) http://www.slashgear.com/samsung-1ghz-hummingbird-mobile-cpu-takes-on-snapdragon-2750348/
Yes, a 1Ghz Cortex A8. That is a core 400Mhz faster than what is available in the iPhone 3GS/Palm Pre and roughly 200Mhz faster than what is available in Omnia i8000.
Of course, many of you are probably wondering how this would compare to Snapdragon, but I can't really say I know. Problem is that benchmarks on phone CPUs are damn near non-existent and the few that do exists are really horrible. However, regardless of which you choose, performance will likely be very similar.
According to the article above, there is supposed to be one noticeable detail: The 1Ghz Cortex will supposedly be cheaper due to lower costs. So if this turns out true, then getting a phone with a 1Ghz Cortex will likely be cheaper.
Is there much of difference beside clock speed. from the msm7200 in the touch pro 2 and the xscale running at 800mhz in the omnia II in terms of performance? ANy help would be appreciated.
If you ask me it (should) make quite a difference. The msm7200 is quite notorious for it's quite allright clockspeed but slow performance.
I used to have a Diamond (with 528 mhz) and then got a Omnia (Marvell 624 mhz) which was already quite a difference. I guess the 800 mhz will make even more of a difference.
Do note that there is a big difference in resolution between the Diamond and the Omnia, so that will also give some speed increase. The Omnia II has a Samsung 800 mhz chip (as far as I know) and I don't know what kind of performance that will give.
Both cpu's are a ARMv6 (afaik), so in that perspective you could say the 800 mhz is faster than the 528 mhz.
See this:
Samsung chip: http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=cpu&id=a6410&c=samsung_s3c6410
Qualcomm chip: http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=cpu&id=a7200a&c=qualcomm_msm7200a
My old diamond was much slower than my current ipaq 211. The ipaq has a 624mhz marvell and is much faster and more responsive than the diamond. It can also play videos back much better. 800mhz would just increase the performance gap.
The Omnia II is Arm11 which is slightly faster than the iphone 3G(both get blown out of the water by the 3Gs), and should support OpenGL ES 2.0.
Here's Samsungs Data sheet on it: http://www.samsung.com/global/syste.../2008/5/30/785500s3c6410_datasheet_200804.pdf
The msm7200, i BELIEVE(dont quote me), would be faster than the SC36410, if it had proper drivers.. however, thats not the case.
numbers are an indicator and nothing more. They give you a clue but clues can be very misleading. If they were usefull, why would you need benchmarking?

(yeah i know wiki is sometimes full of BS but it certainly backs up what I learned in Uni and during my assembler cracking/virus writing days)
The ONLY way to compare CPU's is to run the same application and then run the SAME task in that application. Once you have done so ALL you can say is "For performing task X in application Y, processor ZXY running operating system ABC is faster on the BLAHBLAH platform" and nothing more. It does not mean its faster at everything or indeed, you cannot say its faster than ANYTHING else until you have tested it.
At the end of the day, the processor is affected by drivers, processor design and the operating system and its installaition.
and Software.. if theres no apps that incorporates acceleration, then its wasted.
what about qualcomm 1G snapdragon cpu?
how fast is that compares to current 528mzh? haha
i'm waiting for Acer S200 with 1G cpu.

please re-read and if you still don't understand, i'll try and explain again.
clearly, marvell is better, even the mhz is lesser than what qualcomm offers!
having better decoders also like video playback & multitasking when video is playing!
waiting for devices with marvell cpu pxa168 series.
they use qualcomm chip becoz its cheaper & provide hsdpa to network & GPS module while the rest does not come with it. so individual chip must be used. but its better like GPSone VS SiRF III
Which one is newer? Which one is newer technology.
Which one performs better
Which company made xscale and which made qualcomm?
Which phone brands use which? (ie. HTC, Samsung, LG, etc.)
Moved to Q&A section
Qualcomm is a vendor, XScale is the name of an Intel processor normally found in PDAs such as the Dell Axim and HTC Universal. XScale is pretty old, Qualcomm is bang up-to-date. Qualcomm makes the Snapdragon and Scorpion processors, commonly found in high-end HTC smartphones like the HD2, Desire and Desire HD/Z
Swyped from my HTC Desire running LeeDrOiD 2.3d with Tapatalk.
XScale was Intel's venture into the ARM arena, before selling it, lock, stock and barrel to Marvell, who now manufacture and develop XScale processors. Intel now concentrate on their x86 Atom series of processors.
XScale is an ARMv5 architecture processor, ARMv5TE to be precise, whereas Qualcomm's Snapdragons are ARMv7.
Sometimes it is not always easy to compare one type of ARM processor to another, as clock frequency is not always proportional to the performance. An example is TI's OMAP chip, as found in the Wizard. While it only runs at 200MHz the device performs on a par with other PDAs with ARM chips running at 400/500Mhz
Also some versions have more peripheral units included alongside the processor's silicon. Comms, graphics, sound, keyboard controllers etc.
