I wouldn't trust GamePC's benchmarks. The last 3 or 4 articles I've read over there had mistakes and the benchmarks contradicted what other web sites like Anandtech and Aceshardware were getting. In fact, go read Ace's latest article, his Workstation guide. You'll see how just a 1.53GHz MP takes apart a 1.7GHz Xeon, yet GamePC shows a tie between a 1.6GHz MP and a 1.7GHz Xeon (not only that, but they included gaming benchmarks. There's no point in that for a workstation class product).
