    Tom's Hardware is one of the few benchmarking outfits that uses
    SolidWorks in their testing. If you really need performance here is the
    setup for you:

    The 250 Opteron is between 17% and 34% faster than the fastest Xeon on
    SpecAPC.

    Note that the Intel Nocona had an unfair advantage in the SpecAPC test
    and still lost.

    "For the AGP tests with the Xeon together with E7505 and Opteron plus
    AMD's 8000-chipset, a Quadro FX 3000 was used, whereas the PCI-Express
    System based on the Xeon Nocona and E7525 was equipped with the Quadro
    FX 3400."
