How fast is my Amiga compared to the PC?

This is a bit difficult. The PC uses a completely different family of processors that behave in a completely different manner and obviously, with the modular graphical capabilities of the PC it depends upon the graphics card in use. The speed also depends upon the type of game or application being used. Here is a rough estimation:
 
 
AMIGA PROCESSOR PC PROCESSOR Other System
68000 based Amiga Slow 386 -
68020 based Amiga 386 -
68030 based Amiga Slow 486 -
68040 based Amiga "Average" 486 -
68060 based Amiga 70MHz Pentium -
PowerPC 603 based Amiga 200MHz Pentium 266MHz DEC Alpha

To find out what type of processor your Amiga uses go to chronology.
