oh and if you trust anandtech for numbers. i have some swamp land in florida you can buy.
Well, shouldnt it work always on every mainboard and every os ?I believe thats the case with intels solution.And windows XP 64 is hardly "legacy solution" ist based on windows server 2003 which is very widely used.
As for anands numbers, yes i do believe his numbers, i dont believe he is stupid enough to put false numbers.He just picks benchmarks that favor intel and his comments are thrash.
And as of another note, i dont know if you know this, but there was a time when he was very AMD sympathethic, it changed rather drastically around sandy bridge preview when he got new server farm from intel probably for free.
That is not however topic of this discussion.Core of the problem is, is this weird behaviour driver related, if yes, than in theory this impacts linux solaris etc.
