The load case is not 1:1 and the experience is only anecdotal, but I put a few more details about the load in another comment below. My commentary is only really about what we believed about AMD before making our purchase (internet forums like this one warn about energy use), how that wasn't really the case when we measured it on a real load, and why we 'feel' we would prefer to go the smaller and cheaper AMD server route next time.
