Dual Intel, Proven reliability. Keyword being PROVEN, I may go with AMD down the road, but when things have go to work and work right its Intel for me

I see a lot of talk but no benchmarks. I want data

You guys really need to learn to read, I said the only reason Im not going with AMD is because INTEL has PROVEN their reliability over the many YEARS they have been doing server enviroments. AMD may well prove to be even better than intel, but I will give it a few years before I trust the integrity of my servers to a relatively new player in the server arena

Thanks for the benchmark link.
The game in question is Tribes Vengeance. It's a whore. You basically need a dedicated P4 3 GHz to run a single server.
My only data so far is with task manager. On a P4 3.2 (no HT) it takes 70-80% CPU. With HT, I can run two servers and they only occasionally peg the CPU at 100% (and people report no problems playing --- I know, that's just what people report).
An XP2500 seems to handle this fine (80-90% CPU).
I would try some benches for you if you need. So far nothing has stopped or slowed down this baby. What do you want me to run ?Originally posted by: stultus

I'll run the same benches for comparison, I'm running a PC-DL (i875), with a pair of 2.8/200 Xeons (OCed from 1.6LV), and dual channel 400MHz RAM.
Let me be crystal clear here - I in no way prefer Intel. I just bought this because it was insanely cheap.

thats why anandtech uses opterons for its servers right?
server CPU benchies

Now thats what I like to hear ! Objective thought ! Anyway, The Anand benches would have me wiping the floor with yours, but I don't care ! I really like to hear good compitition, an no fanboyism ! Thanks for your post, and I look forward to some fun !
