For X86 Intel compiler would beat anything, because it has been written by people who made the X86 cpu and is optimized specifically for that CPU. GCC can optimize code for numerous platforms and can work on a large variety of architectures so it is slightly less capable then Intel compiler when it comes to optimizing code on X86 but in exchange it offers usability for other OSes & cpus.
That said, the new gcc 3.2 is VERY close to what the Intel compiler produces & unlike the Intel compiler it is free & open source Smile
