… essentially a next gen T2000. Twice as many threads-per-core leads to 64 logical processors being seen by the OS. Another big change is the addition of an FPU per core rather than a single FPU for the whole chip as…’ve been up against a Sun X4100 with 2 AMD dual-cores. Both machines have 16GB of RAM, but I’ve been…
