I second that, Ace's is the one I've really REALLY been looking forwards too

As long as Anand publishes a quality review, I don't care that if it's the last one published.
That THG review was poorly organized. At first I thought they were using the opteron with an AGP card (I went directly to the test setup page), since it marked the R9700 as "common hardware". Then I saw it was using onboard graphics. Then some benchmarks have results from 1 x Opteron, and some don't. Ugh.

Anybody noticed that Tom used 512Mb in his Dual Xeon 3.06 rig vs 2Gb for Opterons?

Want to know what is even funnier?
Tom didn't configure the Opteron to do run the memory in dual channel mode. And on top of it, he only did ddr300 and not ddr400 on the Opteron. Aceshardware had a better test, but don't know if they got these items correct either.

Well so far from all the reviews and news reports around the web I would say AMD has delivered. It looks like this 64/32 bit hybred is a real stud.

I posted this on another thread, but I'll repost this here:
What's wrong with Opterons memory-bandwidth? I mean, dual-channel P4 beats it, even though Opteron has dual-channel mem-controller as well! And the mem-bandwidth should go up as CPU's are added, thanks to NUMA. Yet, 2x Opterons (that have 4x 64bit mem-channels (2x for each CPU, each CPU can use other CPU's RAM as well)) are beaten by P4 that has 2x64 mem-channels. What's wrong?
