Overview
I hadn't heard much about the 7500 series. I knew the 5500 series was an absolute beast from some projects that I played with a couple on, so this thing is going to be nuts. Looks like it is the final nail in the coffin for Itanium too.

Is this two quad cores on one socket backing or 8 cores on one solid die?

I wouldn't have guessed that x86 would encroach upon itanium this quickly. Pretty impressive.

Nope, from what I understand, this is a true 8 core.
