Slightly better than the AXP. Its pretty much the same CPU as far as FAH is concerned. Opterons have a slightly better FPU but its pretty much the same. This is only if you are running tinkers or gromacs. If you happen to get double gromacs then you can use SSE2 thats on the opteron core. Then PPD would go way up, much like a P4.
Too bad. Wish they had a 64bit version as I have the dualie with 64bit linux and windows OS's, the amd64 3200+ The 142 opterona nd now I just got another k8d dual cpu MB but need cpu's for it.
If it folded fast that would be six 64bit cpu's.
Sounds like just buying cheap amd xp and ecs mb combo's at fry's for 60 bucks would fold as well.
If you ever want stuff let me know. They have probably 3 differant specials on xp/ecs boards of differant prices/speeds each week. Ranging from about $59 to $79 bucks for the combo depending on the speed of the cpu.
The best deal is about once a month they do it for $49 bucks for a 2000+ and ecs board and thats pretty insane for cpu and MB.

? no but that's not to say that something isn't in the works ...also just a guess.
