They are equally readable. The first one sets EAX to 3; the second displays all elements of x on the console. Assembly is readable on a very low level, but it's by nature verbose at a high level, and thus less readable (you can't eyeball a function and know exactly what it does, especially if that function spans more than a screenful of code).
