intel finally getting some competition in server market.

 

Not bad for a "glued together cpu".

"So essentially, AMD has 8 more cores, 16 more threads, delivers 16% more performance than Intel's e5-2699 system and 32% more performance than Intel's "non glued-together" Xeon 8176. AMD's chip does all that while consuming 23% less power than the Xeon e5-2699, and 28% less than the Xeon 8176. Not too shabby. I'll take my CPUs with this kind of glue any day."

Glued together CPU's are junk says Intel? I guess I'll be tossing my Core 2 Quad in the garbage and buying a new all in one chip like Ryzen then...
