dual-core Opteron 275 performance



 To add to the discussion about the performance of new dual-core
 processors for computational chemistry applications,
 the comparison of Intel and AMD dual-CPU based computers is shown at:
 http://www.sg-chem.net/cluster/
 As can be seen from the graph, the Gaussian 03 execution speed (test job
 397) on dual-core dual-CPU Opteron 275 workstation is faster by a factor of 1.95
 as compared to the dual-CPU Xeon 3.2GHz 800MHz FSB machine.

 I would like to thank Ed Gasiorowski (AMD) and Mike Fay (Colfax
 International) for their support.
