That shows that hardware support of x86 ISA does not prevent high FP performance :-) >They are also running native (64-bit) binaries, which Opteron was not. Ok, here is SPEC results of Opteron running 64-bit binaries :-) http://www.spec.org/cpu2000/results/res2003q3/cpu2000-20030728-02417.html Thanks, Eugene
