I dont exactly understand what you want to say.

I´m using old PIII-600 and dual-PIII-1000 here.
Also, i´m not buying PCs in a store... i build them
myself and use only original iNTEL "boxed" CPUs.

@Danilo,

I dont exactly understand what you want to say.

okay, what I meant was: if I've got an Intel, your conclusion could only mean: a) by mistake you wouldn't have an Intel (hence the questions) OR b) program number 3 running faster on mine is consequence of another factor. Obviously it's "b". It's not very important.
I didn't think my posting would result in this heated discussion ! As far as I know AMD and Intel each have their pro's and cons. But I made no study out of the matter. Intel does have a (mostly good) reputation, so that's why there's an Intel processor here.

@fred,

Note: in the test 4, the y value isn't incremented, so it could be faster.

But in test 3 there is also no y value !? (or is there ?!? I'm not so good at assembeler...)

You have 'i' (i or y doesn't really matter) that's incremented in test 3 (i.e. for i = 0 to 100000000). But test 4 would equal (almost) this, using a for loop:
For x = 0 to 100000000
