Well, no clock increase
Like I said, my loyalty is only to my own wallet and I buy what makes sense. Early this year I helped push through a purchase of half a million dollars worth of AMD Opteron servers because Intel had nothing good at the time. Had that same project been now, that client would have stuck with Intel using the Xeon 5100s.

Rev F is like the server version of AM2. It's just a socket and memory change, not a frequency increase. This hasn't really closed the server gap yet.
