Could be wrong but..
From the many things I have read the opterons are more scalable than the next gen Xeons anyway primarily due to its integrated memory controller.

So what that means is single processory units from both AMD and Intel will probably perform similarily, but as soon as you start adding additional cores/processors AMD should take more of a lead.
