I can find no reason to disagree with that sentiment. Seeing as Magny Cours has the highest core density per package, it is logical that AMD wants to tout their advantage with blogs like this. Scott Jonathan,

If my summary of that article is correct, AMD is saying nothing more than “physical cores are better than logical cores”. I can find no reason to disagree with that sentiment. Seeing as Magny Cours has the highest core density per package, it is logical that AMD wants to tout their advantage with blogs like this.

I have recently been using resxtop to closely monitor a recent terminal server migration I performed to a Nehalem host. Also, any comments on the statements made here by AMD referencing their opinions on HT and Nehalem/Westmere on vSphere vs True Cores? http://blogs.amd.com/work/2010/03/30/intel-hyper-threading-vs-amd-true-core-scalability/ Excellent post Scott!!
