Subject: Two Dual-Core Opterons vs. two dual-core Athlon X2?

Hi,

I know there is a difference between Opterons and Ahtlon 64 X2 namely in the
number of Hypertransport interlinks (or how is it called) but how does that
effect chess performance? Is it possible to use two X2-CPUs and have a
four-core-box like with two dual-core-opterons or will the performance be bad
due to the missing interlink?
