Even the newest Xeons ? I thought differently. Would you have any
benchmarks to share ?

Some of the new i7 kit from Intel is indeed where the 'action' is at these days - but if you look at the specifications and price points for those, its cheaper to build a larger AMD based setup to get better performance per $costfactor.

However, the sort of machine that Abhishek is looking at isnt quite a i7 box, is it ?
