Læg mærke til at det kun er med 256 kb cache og kun single ddr interface.
Denne cpu skulle være tidligt sample A0, men ydelsen er voldsom høj i
forhold til det jeg har set tidligere når samples blev testet (P2 athlon mm)
Det lover godt under alle omstændigheder nemlig:
1. Enten er clawhammer langt fremme, næsten færdig, eller
2. Den kommer til at køre perverst hurtigt. En Opteron bliver jo et brag af
en cpu. Det kan der vist ikke være tvivl om.
