nemtom... de egyre penzszagubb ez az egesz tesztsorozat (pontosabban igy visszatekintve az elejetol). mikor ki fizet tobbet?

nos az a helyzet hogy nem. Lasd a kovetkezo (picit regebbi) tesztet:
Dual Xeon vs. Dual Opteron
Idézet
In the 3D Rendering market, the Opteron and Xeon perform similar, with a slight advantage for the Xeon. However, the Opteron scales slightly better with clockspeed and extra CPUs (see 3DSMax benchmarks), while the Xeon still has its Hyperthreading weapon: it's touch and go.
When it comes to (Java) webservers and/or MySQL, the Opteron definitely has the advantage. In some cases, the Opteron simply annihilates the Xeon, but luckily for Intel the latter offers some resistance in our GZIP dominated benchmarks.
Apachebench might be a mostly synthetic benchmark, but it is clearly indicates that the Opteron has a lot of potential left: 64-bit software, AMD64 optimized drivers and NUMA optimized operating systems can push the Opteron far beyond the numbers it is showing today. Especially the last feature could make a real difference for multi-CPU configurations (no wonder AMD and Sun are working together on 8-way+ Opteron system architectures).
Emberunk foleg a kiemelt reszt tesztelte ujra...
Idézet
The Opteron will probably remain the fastest CPU for the server tasks tested here until Intel introduces Nocona, the �Xeon Prescott� at 3.4-3.6 GHz (1 MB L2, 800 MHz FSB) at the end of the 2nd quarter of 2004.
