As of the last batch of servers we bought the AMD chipset would only support 3.5 gigs. Past usage tells me that 3.0 gigs is the actual ceiling. Above that and the server takes forever to boot and doesn't recognize the memory.
Some of that 80% was us. When we ran into our rash of problems with servers a while back they were all AMD. Our Intels have never been a problem. Needless to say we no longer purchase AMD. Most of our OpenTopic servers all have much higher load averages then these web hosting servers yet have uptime measured well over a year.
We gave the AMD a try because they came well recommended but we found that stability and memory issues were too large a problem to work around.
