It is amazing that AMD still seem to have the edge in performance per Watt. It is a shame they are still on a .65 process, their current chips on a .45 process would be truly phenomenal.

I'm 100% AMD and have always preferred it that way with the exception of the K5 era. I recently put a couple of dual quad core 2350's online with SAS drives and I simply cannot find their limits yet. I dumped 3 well loaded servers onto one and it is just looking at me asking if that is all I got for it.
