Intel Xeon 5160 vs AMD Opteron 285

The AMD Opteron 285 is newer than Intel Xeon 5160 @ 3.00GHz, while the multi-threaded (CPU Mark) is simliar, Intel Xeon 5160 @ 3.00GHz is significantly faster in single-thread testing. However, AMD Opteron 285 uses around 17% more power. All the CPUs in this comparison belong in the Server CPU Class.The values below were tabulated from a combined 99 benchmarks submitted from our PerformanceTest software and results and are updated daily to include new submissions.

  • The first section will show basic information for each CPU selected.
  • The additional graphs shows the CPU Mark and Single Thread values of each CPU selected.
  • An accompany graph, if price data is available, will shows the value for money, in terms of the CPU Mark/Thread Rating per dollar.
  • The last section will show approximate yearly running costs for the CPUs.
