Is 64 bit Fedora OK? With which CPU?

[Cristian Sava]

Hi all,

I have some new boxes in front of me:
- Dual Intel Xeon 3600 EM64T, 8GB
- Athlon 64 3500+, 1GB, Asus A8N-E, 200GB Sata 2
- Athlon 64 3200+, 512MB, 120GB Sata
I use FC4 x86_64 & Windows x64 on Athlon 64 and FC4
i386 on Xeon.
Dual Xeon 3600 is 2.8 faster than Dual Intel PIII 1.13
Ghz & 1GB with a Postgresql database.
Athlon 64 works much better with Windows x64 than FC4
x86_64.
I wait for FC5 RC2

Just my feeling: Athlon 64 or Opteron are much, much
better than Intel EM64T on 64 bit SO.

C. S.
