given the fact that the new deneb phenoms are 125W vs 75W on opterons says something that the deneb is faster, due to its using more power

got it?

@Bellisimo, a x264 test would be nice
No thats bull. The reason is chipsets and such. And its 125W TDP desktops vs 75W ACP Opterons. The 75W ACP is 105W TDP for 300mhz less. And that fits quite well with the later 2.8Ghz Deneb at 95W.
