8 ליבות Clovertown מהיר מ16 ליבות Barcelona

[lmlm]

At the Microprocessor Forum, Intel demoed its V8 workstation running the POV-Ray benchmark. The machine is equipped with Intel's Workstation Board S5000XVN, 2 quad-core Xeons 5365, clocked at 3GHz and 16GB RAM. And the results are simply impressive: Intel scored over 4,900 pixels per seconds versus a little bit over 4,000 for AMD's 4 sockets quad-core (Barcelona) system. Again, this is an AMD 16 cores system versus Intel's 8 cores V8 machine.

"Why do you need 16 cores, when you can do better with 8. Our 8 core system is 30% faster than the 16 core machine AMD showed to the press yesterday. I just don't understand how they can claim to be 40% faster", said Francois Piednoel, an Intel engineer present at the show.

*באירוע עוד הוצג פנרין מרובע ליבה כנגד QX6800 ופנרין היה מהיר ב40% מQX6800 !

[i know that my low power X2 4600+ at 2.4GHz gets just under 600PPS with 2GB. That is with running multiple Internet Explorer and Fire Fox tabs and windows. Along with Outlook, Smartlaunch, Quickbooks, and Trillian, etc, etc. 8 times that would be 16 cores, and would be 4800PPS based off a 2.4GHz number with 1GB of memory per core.
