 Simple Steps To Increase Travvic To Your Website
PR is on a scale of 0 to 10, with 10 being the highest ranking possible.
PR is set up to "pass on" from one site to another, or one page to another if it is within your own site.
If a PR 8, however, has a keyword that does not match their content, they will most likely be ranked lower than a PR 6 on the same keyword with more relevant content on the subject matter.

 AMD's PR rating, Performance has a Name?
Well, upon closer inspection something does seem to have changed, whereas the 'older' PR rating system was meant to indicate to what clockspeed Intel CPUs these AMD or Cyrix processors were comparable to, the new PR-rating seems to do it differently.
The 1800+ is not the CPU’s clockspeed but rather a performance rating meant to indicate the real-world performance.
Unfortunately identical PR ratings do not exist for Intel CPUs thus you’ll not be able to compare them directly.

 Geek.com Geek News - Aberdeen Group dislikes AMD PR ratings
Although the AMD PR rating may break down over time, I'd say that at the moment, from the numerous benchmarking reports and comparison reviews I've read, it is fairly accurate, even when compared to a 2GHz Northwood processor.
In the past, PR ratings have been flawed as previous AMD and Cyrix chips had terrible floating point performance and the performance numbers were a joke for everything except strict "office" benchmarks.
The current PR rating is working from a stronger chip (Athlon) that doesn't have the same weaknesses.

 Geek.com Geek News - AMD to revise PR ratings again   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
At introduction, AMD's PR system was widely criticized by some, yet embraced by non-technical consumers as a better way to compare processors than by their clock speeds.
While the PR rating jumped 100 points for each 66MHz increase in processor speed, real performance was starting to lag behind what the rating indicated.
AMD never claimed that the PR system was to compare their chips to intel's, everyone just assumed this, it is actually to compare the athlons to the bog standard durons.

-- Pseudo-code for a ratings algorithm -- revised: October, 1995 -- Algorithm in C and C++ by Paul Matthews -- Pseudo-code version by Wilfred J. Hansen -- This algorithm computes p.rating, the rating for each player, p, -- assuming that the player's initial rating, p.seed, is within a few -- stones of the correct value.
-- Rating is a player rating: a dan value is expressed as the corresponding -- positive number and the kyu value k is entered as 1-k -- (so 1 kyu is zero, 2 kyu is -1, and so on).
It is a mapping of a rating -- or game result into [0,1] such that higher values correspond -- to more likely ratings or results.

 AMD Barton goes a PR rating too far - The INQUIRER
Instead it has turned out to be questionable as to whether the new top of the range, the 3000+, has earned that performance rating.
When the PR rating was first introduced, it was a comparison of the current processor against the original 1.4GHz Athlon.
D'Elia thought AMD was guilty of a PR rating too far and, having read reports on many sites, it seems likely that he is right.

 Rating Information
Rating is a means of classifying things in different categories.
In online communities, rating means a reputation system, it is a type of collaborative filtering algorithm which attempts to determine ratings for a collection of entities, given a collection of opinions that those entities hold about each other.
This is similar to a recommender system, but with the purpose of entities recommending each other, rather than some external set of entities (such as books, movies, or music).

 Lacrosse News
Power rating (PR) change takes into account differences in the mean (average) PR and the standard deviation between the two years and therefore cannot be derived by subtracting the 2005 and 2006 ratings shown in the tables.
Although the correlation between the change in rank and ratings is generally quite high (.84 to.92 for these data sets), you will spot occasional anomalies.
Change in record (won-lost percentage) does not correlate as highly with change in PR rating or rank as they do with each other, in large part because the PRs account more for strength of schedule.

Oh, and nobody at AMD got sued for anything pertaining to the PR rating of the XP processor lineup, Cyrix got a small suit on their desks 7 or 8 years ago when they used a PR rating that specifically compared their processors to the (better at the time) Intel lineup.

I think the rating should be determined by a series of benchmarks running "common" tasks that the everyday user would run into.

 Athlon PR formulas - AMD Forums   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
As far as I know there is no mathmatical forumla to figure out PR ratings.
As you'll notice, the AXP (Palomino/T-bred) formula does in fact work despite the fact that the PR ratings are determined by how the processors fare in AMD's benchmarking suite.
As it stands, there is no formula that would accurately determine the PR rating for a chip at a certain frequency.

 The Tech Report - TR Forum Tidings: Is AMD's 'PR rating' dead?
The PR rating was introduced by AMD all the way back in 2001, when Intel's Pentium 4 was hitting sky-high clock speeds and still getting a thorough pounding from AMD chips clocked a whole half-gigahertz lower.
Meanwhile, AMD is still clinging on to its PR ratings, and some like Prime1 think they're making less and less sense.
Should AMD retire PR ratings and switch Athlons and Semprons to a model numbering scheme like the Opteron and Turion lines, or are the ratings doing their job well enough?

Cyrix PR Ratings were originally derived from a single benchmark (Winstone 97).

The Cyrix PR system was an attempt by IBM to push the Cyrix as a higher performing solution than it was.

 Athlon XP 1800+ not a 1.8Ghz processor?
The K5 PR rating system had already brought confusion, Cyrix added salt to the wound.
The reason why AMD reincarnated the PR system is because PC buyers who are not knowledgeable chose microprocessors based on the clock speed.
Although this was good for the non-informed buyer, from my point of view, if later on the buyer finds out the true clock speed, he would think that he had been cheated.

Clock speed is the bane of AMD's life, especially when it comes to marketing processors to retail customers.

Maybe not, but Intel's choice of one little letter represents a small, very small, victory, we think, for AMD in the Megahertz Madness war.
