P4EE is just waste of chip. it won't have so much support, will run much hotter than the A64, carries no real innovation in itself. And given all the benches A64 is more or less same to p4EE if not better. and A64 gets even better when 64bit is turned on, so its really a matter of few weeks/days when Windows AMD64bit comes out.

also another thing to remember is that do you really think u will get ur hands dirty with one of those suckers given the fact that its really a Xeon chip and people building workstation would really be jumping on every single chip released given the price break they would be getting from it.

While I certainly agree that the A64FX is "better," that's just because there are very few applications in which the EE pulls ahead of it (the same ones in which P4 always excels), and it will use less power and less heat.

What does HyperTransport matter? In a single-CPU system, it's just a method for information to go from RAM to the memory controller/CPU. What really matters ultimately is performance.

I feel the Athlon 64 FX will be a better choice anytime. Wink
