This box has four of 'em. Yes, it is faster than last year, assuming that it works, otherwise we will back up to the fastest single-core opterons AMD can grab for us. We won't be any slower than last year and may be a good bit faster. 2. New version is somewhat better, but hasn't played on ICC for obvious reasons. We'll see how it does in a week...
