Well, let's see, can you use an EE processor in a 2-, 4-, or 8-way configuration?

Why do you think it is that OEMs build Intel servers from Xeon parts, not EEs?

Who cares?

I don't see SPEC2000 benchmarks often in consumer CPU reviews. P4 EE is a cherry-picked Xeon part, its an enthusiast CPU.

you ask the right quetion on the wrong topic, who cares about P4 EE spec results.

Elmer,

I forgot to explain you what you should have understood by yourself. Why Server?, well, duh, all the discussion started from an AMD Opteron Benchmark page, where the Athlon FX didn't figure, neither did the P4 EE.

I wonder if you will suddenly stop referring to SPEC if Pathscale gets its AMD-optimised compiler 20% past the current Intel 8.0 compiler Opteron results
