Re: AMD vs. Intel continued
I wouldnt call AMD cheaper of the two, infact, AMD systems are more expendive than Intels, the processor itself might not be, butif you buy the whole system, especially a server, you would have to pay a bit more for AMD (and it is better). To compare, a brand new dual Xeon box will set you back approximately 2,700 dollars, a brand new dual opteron osa242 will set you back about $3,400 (I was looking around 2.8Ghz 4 160 gig hds, dual power supplies, 6psi slot boards, dual gigabit lans, dvd rom, 2Gb RAM, simple tower case, nothing too fancy, Xeon procs had 800 FSB). And i did try to come up with an estimate on an Itanium server, but they are a bit older and slower, 400FSB, 16Gig scusi Hds, but I'd imagine approx $2,500...
