The Intel chip for xbox was a run of the mill Intel CPU. The chip had 13 instruction sets for numeric processing. The GC had 5. What this meant that even though the GC mhz was a bit slower it could process a numer in 5 sets not 13. Which meant that the GC could process 2.3 32bit numbers more than the XBox.

This doesn't make sense as stated. Maybe you meant something different than "instruction sets"? Are you talking about pipeline length? About cycle costs of some particular number-related instruction?
