In respond to AMD’s Quad FX, Intel announced in January at this year's Consumer Electronics Show, new platform dubbed "V8". The guys at HotHardware.com have managed to take a good look at it and run some benchmarks. The "V8" consists of Intel workstation-class S5000XVN dual-socket motherboard, coupled to a pair of Xeon X5365 processors, 4GB of Samsung DDR2-667 FBDIMMs, and a GeForce 8800 GTX. The motherboard is based on Intel's 5000X chipset and the processors are clocked at 3.0GHz a piece(1333MHz FSB).

It may win the benches (for the time being at least) when compared to a 4x4 system, but it sounds like a lot less fun to own. No overclocking? Only one PCIe? That's not an enthusiast board. That's a cut and dry workstation mobo. A 4x4 may not be practical in any way, but at least you can have some fun with it.

People bought the low end Opterons because they had more cache than the similar clocked Athlon 64's and X2 and because FX was too out of this world.
