Hi folks, |
2 |
|
3 |
from an "typical" SME view (mostly workstation and fileservers) |
4 |
I don't really see an performance difference worth thinking of |
5 |
(as already stated, there're lot's of other bottlenecks, like |
6 |
storage IO). |
7 |
|
8 |
AMD tends to win this battle by price, but Intel tends to be a |
9 |
bit more rubust: I'm still running a bunch of P3 boxes and never |
10 |
get an CPU killed, but Athlon's ("plain", not notebook variants) |
11 |
can be easily burned by improper cooling. But with an good cooling |
12 |
(eg. NOT using cheap gel beared fans), I don't see major problems. |
13 |
|
14 |
So for most cases I personally prefer AMD simply by costs. |
15 |

17 |
BTW: I'd really interested in experience reports about completely |
18 |
different architectures (eg. RISC based). |
