This is the server version. The most strange is the fact that no publication in main computer magazines are present about this last AMD's 64 bits chip. I expected that in magazines for June something will be published. Already few magazines for June arrived but no articles about this chip. Why all this silence? Is this chip already failed someway, or will become visible only later?
