Before shanghai,top scores for AMD in these two tests were held by 2360 Opteron model.From my early calculations and clock normalization(8% difference between 2.5 Barc and 2.7Ghz Shanghai;best submitted scores for Barcelona are used;2P scores are used) you can see that the 45nm part is ~18% faster per clock in int_rate and ~20% per clock fp_rate than Barcelona.
Using the 8xxx series scores,in int_rate the lead is ~19% ,while in fp_rate the lead is ~17% (per clock of course).
meh... only rate benches (only really relevant for high throughput apps), are there any none rate (SPECfp2006/SPECint2006) available?
