The opteron is in the market for more time and it is the reason that it considered as new technology. > >http://www.specbench.org/cpu2000/results/res2004q2/cpu2000-20040528-03064.asc > >http://www.specbench.org/cpu2000/results/res2004q2/cpu2000-20040525-03060.asc > >Scroll down and compare the results for Crafty. The Itanium is 1.6gh when there is already 1.7ghz when the opteron is 250. I guess that the difference between 1.6ghz and 1.7gh is less than 10% so crafty is still faster on the best opteron and not on the best itanium. Uri
