You can look at apache benches and say that this CPU will run apache at this level, and a Phenom X4 should roughly produce the same results. So since we know that the CPU's are essentially the same, your trying to say that a server load is indicative of a desktop load, and that simply is not the case. From the worst of the batch to the best of the batch.

According to quality control standards some are binned a Opterons, some as Phenom X4, Others with one bad die are X3, and still others are binned as Athlon X2. The difference is in the binning process. They come off the same line from the same factory and are even cut from the same wafers. Examples being AMD's Barcelona is a server processor that is identical to AMD's Deneb Desktop processor. Really the only comparisons that make sense is the loads that you put on them.


server workload.In AMD platforms the server brands are essentially identical to the workstation and desktop brands.
