so what's the cheapest solution right now to beating this new AMD beast?
I think right now the cheapest would be the dual e5-2696 v2. which will just slightly outrun the AMD beast for multicore as well as being cheaper platform and memory but will of course get cleaned by AMD when it comes to single core use. power usage wise, AMD of course wins hand down.
I am glad we finally see AMD competitive again. I hope this technology will make it into their multi CPU chips soon. then hopefully we will see more trickle down effect.
Patrick, are you preping for a review of this killer CPU soon? please compare it also to cheaper older (less power efficient) alternate solutions. thanks
