I also suck at math, but that link says 1.5x greater than 1100T, which if you use XSecret's 5.8 score you get 8.7m not 9.85. Which goes right back to comparing server stuff, as now even comparing unknown systems brings in way too many variables I think, especially when it comes to BIOS versions between board makers.
No.The link says 1.78x higher than Thuban in render. Check again.It's the middle bar (yellow) one. It represents Render performance . You can see it being roughly 1.78x higher than 1100T's. Media performance (first bar from the left to right) is based on PCmark's subtest called TV and Movies(this one is mostly single threaded and in this one Zambezi is around 15% faster). Last bar is the one showing 1.5 or 50% faster and is based on 3dMark06's CPU subtest. It fits good since this subtest doesn't scale that well with cores,but scales good with clock. Just read the footnote,it's all there.
And yes,in that sisoft suite,8C Zambezi without turbo would perform nearly identical to 1P BD Opteron 8C without turbo and at the same clock. On this I based my math and double checked it. You can compare Lisbon (2P 6C Opteron and divided by 2x) scores to Thuban X6 at the same clock and see it for yourself.
