Intel Q9450 vs Phenom 9850 - ATI HD3870 X2

[gosh]

omfg ... this post of yours leave only to conclusions:
a) your a total amd fanboy or

Well, for each amd fanboy you will find at least 10 intel fanboys. and they are very sensitive to hear something that says that amd could be better

Just in case it sliped your attention:
Phenom consumes more power while delivering less performance then C2Q.

My friend and I just tested computers running at idle to see how much it was. He has one E6600 and one 7900 GTX. It used 140 watt idle. I had one opteron 165 and 7900 GTX and it was using 130 watt idle. Also tested other computers and the strange thing is that they often seem to draw less power compared to intel on idle. Now I have one using 9750 and ATI HD3850. It uses 100 watt idle, one server with X2 3600+ and that is using 52 watt. It is from the wall.

GPU's are using much more power, and CPU's isn't maxed out (quads)
