Even 2 core Opteron beats 4 core Xeon in latest benchmarks . In the name of humanity, please delay Barcelona.


In a 16 core configuration. Xeon performance are simply miserable, as correctly predicted here.
What to say for 3Ghz Opteron 8222SE against Intel's ?
In the name of fair play, AMD please delay Barcelona.
On the contrary, in a year or so, this server will run 64 AMD cores in 45 nm.
