E Opterons out.

I guess more than 2 CPU's might make a difference, though.

Since I hinted that a test with more processors would likely be won by the Opteron, I fail to see the logic in some of the replies to my posts.

I will await more reviwer's explanations of the exact reasons for the Xeon's improvements, as well as more and better reviews. The bandwidth starved argument seems like a good one though. That's why I hinted that more processors would change the results.

Since the 600 chips are out now, we can expect more comprehensive reviews of them soon as well. I hope.

Anand's review was a joke. Did'nt we learn in dothan business not judge performance by 3-4 benchmarks? Need globals, need lots of real word to decide.
