Any plans to build AMD 24 or 32 core machines?

Hi PCS,

Do you have any plans to build systems based on the new Opteron 6200 Series processors? 16, 24 or 32 cores.

They would make great render boxes or workstations for people like me who do a lot of 3D rendering.

Thanks.

Chris.

We don't have any plans at present, but we'll certainly look into this when we next get chance.

Thanks for the reply PCS.

I'm guessing they won't be able to touch the Intel equivalent but might make a good cheaper alternative.
