New series' speeds...

[rpl]

Rummaging through all the documentation I came up with two questions I
can't find the answer to (yet)... I hope you can help me:


What's the difference in between a 1MB L2 A64 and a 64FX ?
(I'm ramping up for a new system purchase early next year)


And on a more technical side...
All the products use single or dual memory connects, plus 1-3 HT
connects; for the Opteron that's like 30GB/s... how fast is the (on
processor) crossbar for all this stuff ?


Thanks

AMD uses the FX designation for the highest clock rate versions of the
A64, aside from the clock rate they are just 1M A64s.

thanks; I thought so but wasn't sure.
